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!
