Validity of a mobile device measuring isometric deadlift peak force

Current Issues in Sport Science, 2023
Introduction Muscular strength can be viewed as a product of force and velocity. Increases in both maximal force and velocity will ultimately result in an increase in power (Suchomel et al., 2016), thus contributing to performance in tasks such as ...

Test-retest reliability of a single isometric mid-thigh pull protocol to assess peak force and strength-endurance. [PDF]

PeerJ
The purpose of this study was to examine the test-retest reliability of strength-endurance protocols using isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP). Twenty-eight participants (23.2 ± 4.9 years) completed two protocols across four testing sessions. Protocol one consisted of 10 maximal IMTP tests lasting 5 seconds each with 10 seconds rest between.

Force-Time Characteristics in Collegiate Weightlifters Using Two Isometric Pull Protocols

International Journal of Strength and Conditioning
The isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP) is commonly used to measure isometric strength of characteristics of weightlifters. The isometric pull from the start position (IPSP) has not been studied as much as the IMTP but may potentially be a viable option for
