Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between Leg Dynamometer (LD) with squat and deadlift one repetition maximum (1RM) test scores. Participant of this study involved 50 male university athletes who were recreationally active (aged between 21-25 years old). Participants performed LD and one repetition maximum for squat and deadlift test. The score of LD were tested for relationship with the 1RM squat and deadlift. Pearson correlation were conducted to test the relationship. Results showed that there was a significant correlation at high level (r = 0.88, p = 0.000, p <0.001) between the LD test score and the squat while a very high correlation was obtained between the LD test score and the deadlift (r = 0.98, p = 0.000, p <0.001). As the conclusion, LD test that is simple and easy to be conducted produce similar result as the squat and deadlift 1RM test and can be used as a simple assessment of muscular strength among university athletes. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
