Muscle power is associated with higher levels of walking capacity and self-reported gait performance and physical activity in individuals with cerebral palsy by Mattie E. Pontiff, Mattie E. Pontiff, Abhinandan Batra, Li Li, Noelle G. Moreau

“…IntroductionThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between a Power Leg Press test (PLP) with walking capacity and self-reported performance and participation in individuals with Cerebral Palsy (CP), and to compare the strength of the associations between two power tests (PLP and isokinetic (IsoK)) with walking capacity.MethodsAmbulatory individuals with CP (n = 33; age 17.89 ± 7.52 years) performed five inclined power leg presses at 40%–50% of their 1-repetition maximum “as fast as possible”. …”
