Peak torque, rate of torque development and average torque of isometric ankle and elbow contractions show excellent test–retest reliability

Peak torque, rate of torque development and average torque of isometric ankle and elbow contractions show excellent test–retest reliability

Background: Peak Torque (PT), Rate of Torque Development (RTD) and Average Torque (AT) over a single contraction assess the three components of muscle function during isometric contractions. Surprisingly, AT has never been reported or its reliability confirmed. Objectives: This study aims to establi...
