Isokinetic dynamometer

Isokinetic dynamometry is a sophisticated method used to assess muscle strength and function by measuring the force output of a muscle or muscle group during movement at a constant speed across a specific range of motion. The core component of this method is an isokinetic dynamometer, a device designed to maintain a set speed of movement regardless of the amount of effort exerted by the individual. Isokinetic testing is widely used in physical therapy, sports medicine, and research settings to assess progress during rehabilitation, determine the impact of training programs on muscle function, and guide the development of personalized training and rehabilitation protocols.
