The objective of this study is to describe the dynamic balance and neuromuscular control associated with risk of injury in adult runners of the community of Chillan. Methodology: The study presents a non-experimental, descriptive transactional design. The sample corresponds to 61 amateur runners between 18 and 56 years of age, 39 men (63.9%) and 22 women (36.1%) chosen by inclusion and exclusión criteria. The instruments used were the Y Balance Test (YBT) and the Lateral Step Down (LSD) test. Results The comparison between age groups of both YBT and LSD results did not report significant differences (p> 0.05). Conclusion. The recreational runners have a moderate quality of movementand a dynamic balance similar to the healthy adult population, however, the asymmetry presented in the range (> 4cm) is considered a risk factor for injuries in the lower extremity.El objetivo de este estudio es describir el equilibrio dinamico y control neuromuscular asociado a riesgo de lesion en corredores recreativos adultos de la comuna de Chillan. Metodologia: El estudio presenta un diseno no experimental, transeccional descriptivo. La muestra corresponde a 61 corredores aficionados entre 18 y 56 anos de edad, 39 hombres (63,9%) y 22 mujeres (36,1%) elegidos por criterios de inclusion y exclusion. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron los test Y Balance Test (YBT) y Lateral Step Down (LSD) Resultados. La comparacion entre grupos etarios, tanto de los resultados del YBT y LSD no reportaron diferencias significativas (p>0,05). Conclusion. Los corredores recreativos tienen una moderada calidad de movimiento y un equilibrio dinamico similar a la poblacion adulta sana, sin embargo, la asimetria presentada en el alcance (>4cm) es considerado un factor de riesgo para lesiones en extremidad inferior.
