Abstract

This study investigated the muscular strength of 77 Korean young males aged 19-23 in 1989. The maesure- ment items were grip strength, back strength, push and pull strength at each of 3 elbow angles, and torque strength. The results of this study were compared with those of the past survey and the foreign surveys. Besides, sample correlation coefficients were calculated in order to analyze the relationship between muscular strengths and anthropometric dimensions.
