等长大腿中部拉测试在下肢肌肉力量诊断中的应用

doi:10.15942/j.jcsu.2022.01.021

Abstract

Abstract: As a multi-joint isometric test, the isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP) is commonly used to evaluate athletes' lower body strength and power. With the portability of the testing device, IMTP has been used in high-performance sports worldwide. However, its application in China has never been reported before. Existing literature shows that the IMTP is more efficient and less fatigable compared with traditional dynamic test and single-joint isometric test. Besides, peak force, rate of force development, and impulse derived from the IMTP force-time curve are highly reliable and correlated with strength, power, sprint, and change-of-direction. Coaches and researchers could use IMTP to evaluate performance profile and monitor the training process, understand the training status and adaptation, and optimize training programs to further improve athletes' performance.

Key words: isometric mid-thigh pull, neuromuscular function, strength, power, training monitoring;atheletes, training
