THE STUDY OF MONKEY, APE AND HUMAN MORPHOLOGY AND PHYSIOLOGY RELATING TO STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE. PHASE I. THE RELATIONSHIP OF HUMAN SIZE TO STRENGTH.

摘要

Actual relationships of human size to strength have remained undetermined despite decades of research by many investigators because the determination necessitates valid theoretical formulation and selection through three essential criteria of a proper sample of subjects for empirical testing. The formula is:strength k. vol. (wt.)/ht. Champion weightlifters satisfy all criteria,and,by minor adjustments for sample size and skeletal proportion,specific lifts can be predicted within ounces.
