- catalog abstract "Isokinetic Exercise and Assessment not only presents a scientific basis for the use of isokinetics, it also provides practical guidelines for applying isokinetics in clinical practice. This approach, plus the book's extensive normative value tables, makes it an excellent textbook and reference for students and practitioners of athletic training, physical therapy, rehabilitation medicine, and strength training. In Part I of the book, author David Perrin corrects several misconceptions surrounding the use of isokinetics, then delves into the underlying principles of isokinetic theory. Readers will learn how to interpret an isokinetic force/torque curve, the advantages and disadvantages of various dynamorneters, the procedures for optimizing the accuracy and reliability of isokinetic assessment, and the correct way to interpret an isokinetic evaluation. In Part II, the clinical applications of isokinetic exercise and assessment are presented. This section includes isokinetic protocols and normative value tables for the major joints of the body. These comprehensive tables list peak torque values, reciprocal muscle group ratios, test reliability coefficients, and other isokinetic data that have been gathered from a variety of athletic and sedentary populations - both male and female, and over a range of ages.".
