The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between isokinetic hip, knee, and ankle joint strength and performance on two chair-sit-to-stand (STS) tests (five-chair STS test and 30-sec. chair STS test) in older adult women. Forty-seven women ages 60-70, performed both ...
How to perform the sit-to-stand test at home Tripkin recommends a slightly different version of the test: the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s30-Second Chair Stand assessment. Here’s how: Grab a straight-backed chair without arm supports—about 17 inches high—and a stop...
Although the validity of the sit-to-stand (STS) test as a measure of lower limb strength has been questioned, it is widely used as such among older adults. The purposes of this study were: 1) to describe five-repetition STS test (FRSTST) performance (time) by adolescents and adults an...
Sit to Stand App is the first scientifically validated application for the biomechanics evaluation of the chair rising test based on high-speed video recording (240 frames-per-second). Sit to Stand App quickly and easily reports values of time, velocity, and muscle power of the sit-to-stand ...
This study aimed to assess the validity and functional relevance of a standardized procedure to assess lower limb muscle power by means of the 30-s sit-to-stand (STS) test when compared to leg extension power (LEP), traditional STS performance and handgrip strength. A total of 628 community...
The Timed Up & Go test (TUG) was administered to assess construct validity. Furthermore, the time score of the LSSWT test was correlated with the Trunk Control Test (TCT), balance performance, the Chair Stand Test (CST) and gait speed. Intra- and interrater reliability were measured, ...
Background: Timed up and go (TUG) and sit to stand (STS) tests that required less space and easier to be performed in respiratory and cardiac diseases for assessing functionality. Aim was to test the reliability of TUG and 30-second STS (30STS) tests and determine the validity of TUG an...

Since standing up independently is essential for reducing disability and burden of care, it is important to understand if additional repetitive sit-to-stand training improves the ability to stand up independently after stroke. Five clinical trials have investigated the effects of additional repetitive si...
