The Use of the Isometric Mid-thigh Pull in the Monitoring of Weightlifters: 25+ Years of Experience

, 2019
Currently, multi-joint, position-specific isometric tests (MJIT) are commonly used as part of the monitoring of an athlete’s progress. Strong associations between isometric force-time curve parameters have been found.

Lower-limb strength and power characteristics in relation to 180° change of direction ability in elite female basketball players

Frontiers in Sports and Active Living
This study examined the relationships among lower-limb strength, power, and horizontal ground reaction force (GRF) during change of direction (COD) tasks in elite female basketball players. Sixteen athletes completed an isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP), a

Reliability of isometric mid-thigh pull for maximal strength testing in youth athletes: A systematic review

International Journal of Sports Science & Coaching
The isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP) is widely used for assessing maximal force production due to its minimal fatigue impact compared to dynamic strength tests. However, variations in testing protocols, equipment, and athlete characteristics may influence the reproducibility of IMTP-derived variables.
