The Side Plank Elevated With Leg Raises is an advanced endurance test combining side plank support with repeated or sustained top-leg movement. It challenges lateral trunk endurance, shoulder support, hip abductor endurance and pelvic control. Related side bridge research supports lateral trunk endu...
The Single Leg Side Plank Raises test is a physical fitness assessment that focuses on the lateral stability of the core and hip muscles. This test involves assuming a side plank position and lifting the top leg while keeping it straight and the foot flexed.
To perform the Single Leg Side Plank Rai...
The Hip Bridge Test assesses hip extension endurance, posterior-chain capacity and pelvic control using double-leg or single-leg bridge positions. The single-leg version has stronger research support than the double-leg version because recent work has examined single-leg bridge endurance values, cli...
The Single-Leg Adductor Plank is a Copenhagen-style adductor endurance assessment. Exact endurance norms are limited, but related research supports Copenhagen adduction testing and newer work has investigated test-retest reliability for measuring eccentric hip adductor strength during the Copenhagen...
The Single-Leg Sit-to-Stand Test assesses unilateral lower-limb performance by requiring the client to stand from a seated position using one leg. Research has reported inter-rater and test-retest reliability for single-leg sit-to-stand methods when chair height, setup and scoring are standardised. ...
The Single-Leg Sit-to-Stand in 30 Seconds records how many valid single-leg sit-to-stand repetitions a client can complete in 30 seconds. It is a unilateral endurance variation and should not be compared directly with double-leg 30-second chair stand norms.
Introduction
The test combines single-le...
The Wall Sit Single-Leg Test is a unilateral lower-limb strength endurance assessment where the client holds a single-leg wall sit position for as long as possible. The existing Measurz article describes it as a test focused on quadriceps and anterior thigh endurance strength, with the result record...
The Single Leg Hamstring Bridge is another great strength assessment for posterior chain lower limb strength that requires little equipment to perform.
Research by Freckleton, Cook, and Pizzari, 2013 investigated this test and its risk of a hamstring injury in football players finding that those wh...
The Single Leg Adductor Raises test is a physical fitness assessment that evaluates an individual's strength and endurance of the adductor muscles in the inner thigh. This test involves lying on one side and lifting the top leg while keeping it straight and the foot flexed.

The Posterior Shoulder Endurance Test, or PSET, is an isometric endurance test performed to task failure. Peer-reviewed research has investigated intra-rater reliability, inter-rater reliability and minimal detectable change for the PSET, supporting its use when the test is standardised. Â

Here are the steps to perform shoulder endurance strength testing with a dumbbell:
1. Have the participant sit or stand with their arms at their sides and a dumbbell in one hand.
2. Instruct the participant to raise their arms to shoulder height and hold the dumbbells with their palms facing down.
3....
The Bunkie Test is a functional performance battery involving five plank-style test positions performed bilaterally. Research has reported descriptive data for healthy adults and describes the test as a way to assess aspects of core muscular endurance and line-based stability. Â
