Hip Stability Isometric Test (HipSIT): Concurrent Validity and Reference Values for CrossFit® Participants.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Hip Stability Isometric Test (HipSIT) is a practical clinical assessment of posterolateral hip muscle performance. There is no information regarding the validity of the HipSIT in participants exposed to high-intensity training, such as CrossFit®.

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to investigate the Hip Stability Isometric Test (HipSIT) concurrent validity with the isokinetic assessment in CrossFit® participants. A secondary purpose was to characterize posterolateral hip muscular performance with HipSIT according to sex and lower limb dominance in athletes who participate in CrossFit®.

Study design

Cross-sectional.

Methods

One-hundred and eleven CrossFit® participants were evaluated. The posterolateral hip muscles were evaluated using the HipS
