Factorial Expressions of Muscular Strength

Research Quarterly. American Alliance for Health, Physical Education and Recreation, 1975
Abstract A total of 16 strength, work, and power tests were administered to a random sample of 50 male college students. The raw scores and residual scores which controlled for individual differences in height and weight were analyzed by multiple factor analytic models.

Age, Gender, and Muscular Strength

The Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences, 1995
Muscular strength can be measured by cable tensiometry, non-motorized dynamometry (e.g., handgrip dynamometer), motorized dynamometry, or with free weights or exercise machines. Advantages and disadvantages of each are discussed. Cross-sectional studies indicate that isometric and concentric strength levels peak between the second and third decade ...

Muscular strength and physical function

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2000
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential association of muscular strength and endurance at baseline with the prevalence of functional limitations at follow-up.Study participants were 3,069 men and 589 women (30-82 yr) who received a clinical examination including a strength evaluation at the Cooper Clinic between 1980 and 1989 and ...

Muscular strength in idiopathic haemihypertrophy

Clinical Physiology, 1992
Summary. Nine patients (age 8.9, range 6.5 to 9.5 years) with idiopathic haemihypertrophy were followed at six month intervals for two years. The isometric voluntary contraction strength of the elbow flexors and knee extensors was measured bilaterally, and expressed per unit of muscle and bone cross sectional area of the upper arm (elbow flexors) and ...

Muscular Strength After Callotasis Limb Lengthening

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1995
Seven patients (average age, 9.2 years; range, 7.6-10.6 years) underwent collotasis lengthening of a congenital short femur. The isometric voluntary contraction strength of the knee extensor muscles was measured for each leg immediately before and at 6-month intervals for 2 years, starting from 2 months after the fixator was removed.

The Importance of Muscular Strength: Training Considerations

Sports Medicine, 2018
This review covers underlying physiological characteristics and training considerations that may affect muscular strength including improving maximal force expression and time-limited force expression. Strength is underpinned by a combination of morphological and neural factors including muscle cross-sectional area and architecture, musculotendinous ...

Cross-Sectional Area and Muscular Strength

Sports Medicine, 2008
A brief review is provided on the relationship of strength to muscle cross-sectional area (CSA). It is commonly believed that maximal force and CSA are strongly related. Studies examining varying levels of training status display discordant data suggesting complex relationships between training status, CSA and peak force.
