Abstract
Data were collected over a five year period from a sample of 1,282 females between the ages of 9-73 using a Cybex II Isokinetic Dynamometer. Peak torque at 60 degress/second or 30 degrees/second in 5 reciprocal joint motions was obtained. The purpose of this testing was to develop normative strength data for a healthy female population. These norms can be used in the development of strength training and rehabilitation programs. In all cases of joint motion mean peak torque values increased with increasing age. The highest peak values occurred within the 19 - 30 year age group. Torque values progressively and incrementally decreased with further increase in age. Torque values in each age group consistently increased with increased weight, until reaching subjects weighing 220 pounds or more. Verf.-Referat
