Simple equations to predict concentric lower-body muscle power in older adults using the 30-second chair-rise test: a pilot study

Although muscle power is an important factor affecting independence in older adults, there is no inexpensive or convenient test to quantify power in this population. Therefore, this pilot study examined whether regression equations for evaluating muscle power in older adults could be derived from a...
