Response to commentary on “The sit-to-stand muscle power test: An easy, inexpensive and portable procedure to assess muscle power in older people”

Our STS power equation does not aim to substitute “gold standard” methods, and does not provide data that can be interchangeable with those yielded by comprehensive kinematic and kinetic analyses; however, it provides the possibility to assess lower-limb muscle power in contexts in which time or res...

Descrição
Resumo:Our STS power equation does not aim to substitute “gold standard” methods, and does not provide data that can be interchangeable with those yielded by comprehensive kinematic and kinetic analyses; however, it provides the possibility to assess lower-limb muscle power in contexts in which time or resources constrains inherent to traditional instruments may prevent its assessment.
