About

assess the difference in adductor peak strength evaluated with different instruments. Hand held dynamometer vs force frame

Full description

This study aims to compare the difference in adductor strength output performed by athletes suffering a groin injury between two different assessment methods. Previous studies have observed that add strength differs depending on the evaluation method. Isometric strength can be measured with hand held dynamometer or with force plates (forceframe). Wether one method is better in order to differenciate adductor strength between healthy and injured limb is not known to date.
