Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to find out the changes in the measurable parameters of the dynamic and static position of the foot, caused by the tibialis posterior muscle which is activated by the fatigue protocol. The study includes 30 healthy patients whose socio-demographic and descriptive characteristics are held. The changes in the dynamic and static position of foot were measured by pedobarography whereas the level of fatigue was measured by Borg Fatigue Scale.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Peak Plantar Pressures of the foot
The plantar pressure profiles were divided into 10 anatomical regions by using software support. These regions corresponded to followings : hallux (toe1), toes 2-5, first to fifth metatarsals (Meta1, Meta2, Meta3, Meta4, and Meta5), mid foot (MF), medial heel (MH), and lateral heel (LH). Peak pressure (PP, Newton-N) was analysed for all regions separately.

Study Arms (1)
One group
EXPERIMENTALOnly one group was assessed before and after performing muscle fatigue protocol.
Interventions
Tibialis posterior was fatigued using 2 exercises: 1. Unilateral heel raise exercise 2. Close chain resisted foot adduction exercise

- Prior history of surgery to the foot and lower extremity
- A traumatic injury to the ankle or foot 12 months prior to the start of data collection.
You may not qualify if:
- Participants were excluded from this study if they had any orthopedic or neurological disorder, need to use an assistive device or orthoses.
