Zusammenfassung: | Isometric strength testing has commonly been used to evaluate human strength capability. Recently it has been proposed by NIOSh as a form of administrative control for injury prevention. Historically, the number of trials used for each person-test combination has been arbitrarily selected and is often undocumented. This paper proposes a criterion for isometric testing and reports some results from using this criterion. |
