Özet

Introduction: Dynamometers are valid and reliable test instruments that have been used for many years to measure strength. However, there are excessive differences in leg strength scores in different studies with similar groups. This situation suggests a non-conformity to testing procedures occurred during the practice of the tests. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of non-suitable pulling technique on the leg strength test results.
