Muscle strength assessment  

Use MuscleLabTM and measure muscle strength, dynamic power, muscle endurance, EMG, balance and more

Our mission is to provide our customers with a practical, powerful, accurate, reliable and easy to use tool for evaluation of muscle performance in sport and rehabilitation. MuscleLab is used by scientists, top sports centers, sophisticated fitness centers, rehabilitation institutes and hospitals. Even NASA and ESA (European Astronaut Centre, EAC) are using this powerful tool for experiments in space related research programs

What is MuscleLab? 

The MuscleLab can measure almost everything to do with power and speed, and is therefore extremely versatile for a great many uses, such as:

  • Controlling and adjusting the training process of top athletes and for immediate feedback
  • Controlling and adjusting the recovery process after injuries and for immediate feedback
  • MuscleLab is portable and can be used both in the laboratory and in the clinical setting, as well as outside on the playing-field or in the sports hall
  • MuscleLab can be coupled to almost all apparatus used for training purposes which means both power apparatus as well free weights
  • MuscleLab has extremely well thought-out software with far more possibilities than many other more expensive types of apparatus
  • MuscleLab measures power with the velocity as it occurs in sport, and is therefore specifically for sports.
  • The measurement data are stored and can be compared graphically or in tables
  • MuscleLab it favorable priced

MuscleLab is a combination of measuring possibilities, brought together in one apparatus:

  • The well-known jumping power-mat (Boscos test)
  • Sensor to measure the power in Watts in strength training
  • EMG to measure the muscle activity and recruitment of muscle fibers
  • Electrogoniometer, used to dynamically record the angle of a joint
  • Accelerometer for accurate information in various tests
  • Electronic timing gates for speed test
  • Force platform which registers the vertical force as well as the path of the projection of the centre of gravity
  • Built in video function to record video along with data for further analysis

First version of MuscleLab was on the marked already in 1990 so we have a lot of experience in the field!
