Abstract

To evaluate upper body strength through the arm flexion test methods, manual dynamometry and functional electromechanical dynamometer in independent older adults. Transectional study, in 32 older adults. Data collected with a manual dynamometer, arm flexion test and with the Dynasystem Functional Electromechanical dynamometer. The results with the arm flexion test showed the highest strength indices were between 65 and 69 years old (21.9%; f = 7), in manual dynamometry the men presented low strength (15.6%; f = 5) and in the DEMF -DYNASYSTEM the highest percentage was for 7 repetitions (21.3%).
