the whole, assess how much force you can generate over a specified
period of time.

assess injury risk - the greater the range of motion you possess the
less likely you'll become injured.
Athletes should perform sports specific tests as often as possible.

court following your training programs.
Strength tests do exactly what they say on the tin. Performed as
