Correlation Of Lower Limb Strength, Power, Waist-hip Ratio And Bmi With A Sitting-rising Test In 18-35 Years Age Group . International Journal of Clinical and Biomedical Research. 2020 Jan; 6(1): 14-202395-04712521-0394http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/200882Purpose: To investigate the co-relation of sitting-rising test scores with measures of lower extremity strength, power, and body compositions (body mass index and waist-hip ratio). Furthermore, to find out the level of physical activity in the targeted population. Methods: Participants aged between 18-35 years (n=131) of both genders were recruited in this study. Along with performing sitting-rising test, anthropometric and demographic data were collected to calculate body mass index and waist-hip ratio. Lower extremity strength was assessed using a 30-second chair stand test, and power was assessed using a triple hop test for distance. Also, the Rapid Assessment Disuse Index questionnaire was given to dividing the population into two groups depending on whether they are involved more in physical activity or not. Results: Sitting-rising test scores showed a positive correlation with lower extremity strength and power, negative correlation with body mass index, and no co-relation with waist-hip ratio. Further, 76 participants out of 131 were less physical activity and had more sedentary behavior. Conclusion: Sitting-rising from the floor in young adults is influ-enced by the strength and power of lower extremities and body mass index except for the waist-hip ratioSitting-rising testLower extremity strength and powerRADI scoreJournal ArticleIndiaVSPM College of Physiotherapy, Nagpur, Maharashtra, India.
