ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To examine the test re-test reliability of isometric maximal voluntary contractions (MVC) of hip adduction (ADD_ISO), hip abduction (ABD_ISO), and multijoint leg extension (SQUAT_ISO) in sub-elite female Australian footballers.

Methods

Data were collected from 24 sub-elite female Australian footballers (age 22.6 ± 4.5 years; height 169.4 ± 5.5 cm; body mass 66.6 ± 8.0 kg; 4.5 ± 4.4 years sport-specific training; 2.5 ± 2.0 years unstructured resistance training) from the same club on two non-consecutive days. Participants performed three isometric MVCs of ADD_ISO, ABD_ISO, and SQUAT_ISO. The SQUAT_ISO was performed at 140° knee flexion with a vertical trunk position and ADD_ISO and ABD
