Development and reliability of a hand-held dynamometer device to measure the ankle dorsiflexor muscle strength [PDF]
Background Ankle dorsiflexor muscle strength is a crucial component of gait. Objective We describe the development of a simple, hand-held dynamometer to measure the ankle dorsiflexor muscle strength in the sitting position. In addition,

The Relative and Absolute Reliability of Leg Muscle Strength Testing by a Handheld Dynamometer
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2011To examine the relative and absolute interrater reliability of handheld dynamometers (HHD) for assessing the lower extremity muscle strength, maximal voluntary contractions (MVCs) of 16 young adults for bilateral hip and knee muscles were tested using the break method.

P-54 Muscle strength evaluation with a digital manual dynamometer
Poster Presentations, 2016The muscle strength is one of the main physical components and is associated with the quality of movement execution in the everyday activities and sports performance. To quantify and classify the levels of strength is very important for decision making in the physical exercise prescription and therapy.

Although strength and conditioning exercises have been prescribed to enhance performance and prevent injury in sailors, little is known about these exercises in comparison to the demands placed on the sailor's musculature while hiking maximally. Because of the difficulty in collecting hiking-related data on water, a 3-minute maximal hiking test (HM180)

Single dynamometric measures are sometimes used to characterize overall muscle strength. This study examined the legitimacy of that practice by assessing how dynamometer measures of grip and knee extension strength related to manual muscle-test grades of each upper and lower limb and of the trunk. Based on correlations and principal component analysis,
