Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Determine the detailed properties of objectively measured specificities of aspects of muscle function of the knee flexor-extensor mechanism using the Dinabang-dynamometer. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected to observe a responsiveness and reproducibility of the maximum isometric torque, force resistance torque of knee flexors and extensors, force symmetries between the right and left limbs, ischio-quadriceps ratio, and also to correlate the production of maximum isometric torque with changes in muscle thickness, determine rates of force development for quadriceps and ischia and correlate the maximum isometric torque of knee extensors and flexors with handgrip strength | — |
