How to Use Dynamometry in Clinical Practice
Just because you have a ‘number’ it doesn’t mean that it’s accurate, reliable or reproducible. Worse, it can guide you into poor decision-making with your patients and clients.
If you’re interested in:
- understanding how to use commercially-available and hand-held devices
- how to create and conduct meaningful assessments
- obtaining true and accurate measures of performance
- avoiding the mistakes of others in acquiring and using data

PLUS when enrolment opens, the first 20 people to register will receive FREE in-person training.
It’s fantastic to see testing devices at price points that are accessible to small clinics BUT we need to understand the device and the test characteristics else we run the risk of misinterpreting the data and making poor decisions.
By the end of this course, you’ll not only understand how to assess the relative merits of different dynamometers (and which to buy), you’ll be able to design and deliver accurate assessments of muscle force that will acquire meaningful data that will help guide your practice, decision-making and monitor progress with your individual patients and clients.
What clinicians don’t often know...
Assessing the individual demands a greater level of measurement precision
Some tests of muscle performance may have more than 40% error
RFD is highly variable

We will cover all of this and more in a really simple to follow clinician-focussed course.
That means it’ll be pragmatic and:
- You won’t get bogged down by stats, but you will have a better understand of measurement science!
- You can use the strategies taught in clinic, you don’t need a complex lab set-up
- You can apply everything you learn to each and every patient / client
- You’ll be able to develop your own measurement protocols and know exactly how accurate they are
