Reliability of the isometric mid-thigh pull peak force in Irish schoolboy rugby players. [PDF]
S Afr J Sports Med, 2021 Maximal strength is a key variable within youth rugby union and is therefore of merit when testing and monitoring youth rugby athletes (Darrall-Jones et al., 2015). The isometric mid-thigh pull peak force (IMTP PF) has been observed to be a reliable, valid, and safe means of assessing maximal strength in all previously researched cohorts (Brady et al.,

The Influence of Instruction on Isometric Mid-Thigh Pull Force-Time Variables
International Journal of Strength and Conditioning, 2022 Purpose: The isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP) is commonly used to assess maximal and rapid (i.e., explosive) strength in athlete populations. The conventional IMTP instruction is to pull “as hard and fast as possible” (CON).
