Muscular Strength Maximal amount of force that can be generated by a specific muscle or muscle group in a single contraction (1RM) Important component of fitness Reasons to Test Strength 1. Predict Performance can predict what sport you are most suited for (ie., Thorstenssen Test) 2. Implement a training program pre-training values ? training ? re-evaluate ? training etc... Muscular Strength 3. Measure of rehabilitation measure strength pre-season ? injury during season ?? use pre-season value as a guideline for rehab (“back to 100% of pre-season value”) 4. Identify Muscle Imbalance muscle imbalance may lead to injury hamstring to quadricep ratio .65-.75 Ways to Measure Strength 1. Isometric - muscle action when tension is produced but there is no change in the length of the muscle ie., hand grip dynamometer Is work being done? (FxD) no distance but physiological work is being done since we are using ATP Isometric Testing Advantages simple cheap saves time Isometric Testing Disadvantages specific to the joint angle (doesn’t reflect the full ROM) doesn’t correlate with sports performance more likely to perform the Valsalva Maneuver Ways to Measure Strength 2. Isotonic muscle action in which a muscle shortens or lengthens with varying tension and velocity while overcoming a constant resistance throughout a ROM ie., bench press Isotonic Advantages correlates better with sports performance relatively inexpensive accessible psychologically seeing work done Isotonic Disadvantage measuring the weakest point in the ROM doesn’t measure strength at different speeds Ways to Measure Strength 3. Isokinetically maximal tension is developed at all joint angles throughout the ROM with speed being constant (have accommodating resistance at a controlled speed of movement Isokinetic Advantages measure strongest point in ROM measure strength at different speeds Isokinetic Disadvantages expensive (40-80K) not readily accessible need someone knowledgeable to run the equipment W
