Abstract

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between leg extensor torque and the degree of sway. [Participants and Methods] We recruited 31 male and 22 female healthy adults. Strength Ergo 240 was used to measure leg extensor torque. A body pressure measurement system was used to measure the degree of sway. After the measurement, the correlation between these factors was investigated according to sex. [Results] In the males, a significant negative correlation was observed between leg extensor torque and the degree of sway. [Conclusion] In cases where therapists actively performed muscle strengthening and standing-up exercises to reduce the degree of sway in the males, the possibility that such efforts could increase leg extensor torque was observed.
