The Elbow Extension Strength Test measures how much force a client can produce when straightening the elbow against resistance. It is commonly used to assess elbow extensor force output in a controlled isometric setup. The main contributor is the triceps brachii, with contribution from anconeus and ...
The Wrist Extension Strength Test measures how much force a client can produce when lifting the wrist backward against resistance. It is commonly used to assess isometric wrist extensor force output in a controlled setup.
Wrist extension strength can provide useful context for gripping, lifting, ca...
To test grip strength isometric strength with a Muscle Meter, you can follow these steps:
- Have the client seated in an upright position, with the elbow tucked into their torso and flexed to 90 degrees. The elbow should also be in a neutral position of pronation and supination.
- Once set, hand the...
The Wrist Flexion Strength Test measures how much force a client can produce when bending the wrist forward against resistance. It is commonly used to assess isometric wrist flexor force output in a controlled setup.
Wrist flexion strength can provide useful context for gripping, lifting, carrying,...
The Single-Leg Leg Press Repetition Maximum Test assesses machine-based unilateral lower-limb pushing strength. It is useful for tracking strength progress, comparing sides and guiding lower-limb strength programming.
Introduction
A client may squat evenly with light loads but show a clear side-to...
The Single-Leg Calf Raise Strength Test assesses how well a client can repeatedly raise the heel on one leg with control. It is useful for tracking plantar flexor strength-endurance, comparing sides and monitoring changes across running, jumping, calf-loading or lower-limb strength programmes.

The Shoulder External Rotation Strength Test measures how much force a client can produce when rotating the arm outward against resistance. It is commonly used to assess isometric shoulder external rotation force output in a controlled setup.
Shoulder external rotation strength can provide useful c...
The Shoulder Internal Rotation at 90° Strength Test measures how much force a client can produce when rotating the arm inward against resistance with the shoulder positioned at approximately 90 degrees of abduction. It is commonly used to assess isometric internal rotation force output in a more ove...
The Shoulder ASH Test, also known as the Athletic Shoulder Test, measures how much force a client can produce through the shoulder and upper limb in long-lever prone positions. It is commonly used in sport, performance and shoulder strength profiling because it assesses force production in positions...
The Shoulder External Rotation at 90° Strength Test measures how much force a client can produce when rotating the arm outward against resistance with the shoulder positioned at approximately 90 degrees of abduction. It is commonly used to assess isometric external rotation force output in a more ov...
The Shoulder Abduction Strength Test measures how much force a client can produce when lifting the arm away from the side against resistance. It is commonly used to assess isometric shoulder abduction force output in a controlled setup.
Shoulder abduction strength can provide useful context for ove...
The Shoulder Adduction Strength Test measures how much force a client can produce when pulling or pushing the arm toward the side of the body against resistance. It is commonly used to assess isometric shoulder adduction force output in a controlled setup.
