Use of Dual-Task Balance Training among Athletes for Better Performance

Abstract

Dual tasking refers to the process of performing more than two tasks at the same time. Dual task training among athletes provides an opportunity to develop the ability to do more than one thing simultaneously. The risk of failure can also be avoided by following this process. However, dual-task assessments can be frequently completed for determining cognitive performance in relation to musculoskeletal injury and concussion risks. Many athletes went through dual task balance training to enhance their performance. Thus, embracing the performance of an individual is possible through adopting the strategy of dual task balance training sessions. For completing this study, secondary qualitative data has been collected by the researcher. Data that are already available in online books, articles and journals are accessed by the researcher in order to complete this study effectively. Ethical norms are followed properly while including data and completing this study. Moreover, the findings of this study represent that DT (Dual Task) develops the coordination between 2 or multiple tasks. Hence, performance in various settings can be improved through taking proper training sessions. Individual tasks can be improved by attending this training session. DT helps in developing the functional capacity as well as cognition capability of an individual. The findings of this study concluded that dual task balancing training is crucial for improving the performance of an athlete. Hence, training sessions are important to be taken by young athletes in order to manage more than one task at a time.
