2020, Journal of Bodywork and Movement TherapiesCitation Excerpt :When we compare these results with the TW and PT correlations of Nascimento et al. (2012) study, there were similar results in the study, but the authors did not point it out. Therefore, as HG dynamometers are relatively one of the inexpensive, simple, and clinically useful methods to measure the total upper limb strength than isokinetic dynamometers (Adams et al., 2004; Bohannon, 1998; Mandalidis and O'Brien, 2010), and the findings of this study suggested that measures of HG strength could be used to estimate and monitor the muscular performance of the ER muscles of shoulder among the population of elite SV players. It's important to point out that, HG dynamometer’ estimate is closer to the TW values than the PT values of the isokinetic dynamometer.
