Four major steps for conducting strength tests

Explanation:

Step1 : Select resistance exercises

Step2: Determine the load athletes can work

Step3: Testing athlete based on essential exercises

Step4: Determine the one rep max

The ultimate goal in conducting strength tests is to evaluate an individual’s one repetition maximum. This refers to the greatest load that a person can fully move by pushing, pulling or lifting once without injuring or damaging the muscle or any failure.  

Strength testing is done through resistance exercises to measure the strength or ability to work against resistance. It depicts the maximum force that the muscle or muscle group generate to do a work in a repetitive ordered series without damaging the muscles or fatiguing. Depending upon the type of muscle, strength tests and exercises varies.

Benchmarks should be set for athletes to determine the load that he/she can lift repetitively for a given number of times.
