Testing ankle inversion isometric strength with a muscle meter can be done using the following protocol:

1. Have the client adopt a supine position, lying down on a table with their shoes and socks off. 
2. Ensure the foot being tested starts in a neutral position with a small amount of degrees of ank...

To test 1st toe flexion isometric strength, follow these steps:

1. Have the client adopt a supine position, lying down on a table with their shoes and socks off. Ask the client to slide down the table until their toes of the testing foot are hanging just over the edge of the table. 
2. To ensure the f...

Here is one method for testing 1st toe extension isometric strength:

1. Have the client adopt a supine position, lying down on a table with their shoes and socks off. Ask the client to slide down the table until their toes of the testing foot are hanging just over the edge of the table.

The Single Leg Sit To Stand Test (SLSS) is a useful single-leg strength test for those that do not have access to a lot of equipment. Due to the open-chain nature of the test, it requires more balance and skill than performing the Sing Leg Leg Press and can be used also to assess the kinematics and ...

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 Adductor raise...

The Single Leg Wall Sit is a useful test focusing more on quadriceps and anterior thigh endurance strength and requires little equipment.

Most research on this test has been performed on high school participants with some research suggesting that an average of 50-75 seconds for males and 35-45 seco...

The Single Leg Sit To Stand Test (SLSS) is a useful single-leg strength test for those that do not have access to a lot of equipment. Due to the open-chain nature of the test, it requires more balance and skill than performing the Sing Leg Leg Press and can be used also to assess the kinematics and ...

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 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...

Sporting activities often require a complex integration of the upper and lower extremities. The core which is defined as the trunk, pelvis, and hip, functions as the link between the upper and lower extremities, and stability of this region is proposed to be a requisite for optimal athletic performa...

The Single Leg Adductor Plank test is a physical fitness assessment that measures an individual's ability to stabilize their core and hip muscles while performing a unilateral (single-leg) exercise. The Single Leg Adductor Plank test is designed to assess an individual's core and hip stability, as w...

The Powerline 'Bunkie' tests are a functional performance test battery consisting of 5 test positions and have been used to assess aspects of muscular function. 

De Witt and Venter proposed this FPT consisting of 5 test positions (each test performed bilaterally for a total of 10 tests) which requi...
