Hi Maria

You might also find an old article of Mel's worth reading to widen perspective on this issue. "Functional training revisited" Strength and Conditioning Journal Vol 24 No 5 pgs 42-46

For example he writes:

"the popular use of balance drills on balls, wobble boards, and other relatively unstable surfaces may not serve as suitable functional activities because they implicate very different change in support and compensatory strategies compared to those involved in real sporting situations...."

We also need to appreciate the relative roles of both proprioceptive and vestibular systems when moving from static to dynamic balance.
