Swaying slower reduces the destabilizing effects of a compliant surface on voluntary sway dynamics.

The ability to control weight shifting (voluntary sway) is a crucial factor for stability during standing. Postural tracking of an oscillating visual target when standing on a compliant surface (e.g. foam) is a challenging weight shifting task that may alter the stability of the system and the muscl...
