Methods: This is a quantitative cross-sectional study involving 40 participants aged between 22 and 29 years divided into two groups (climbers, non-climbers). Measurements of dynamic postural stability were performed on Neurocom Smart EquiTest in the Kinesiological Laboratory of Charles University, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport. Motor Control Test, Sensory Organization Test and Limits of Stability test batteries were chosen for this study. The measured data was subsequently processed by Neurocom Balance Manager Software. The following statistical methods were used to analyze the data obtained by Neurocom: Shapiro - Wilk test, Student's t-test, Mann - Whitney test and Cohen's d effect size. Results: A statistically significant difference (in favor of climbers) was found in COND6 of Sensory Organization Test, where p-value was 0,04. In Motor Control Test there was a statistically significant difference (in favor of climbers) in...
