Abstract
The purpose of this study was to establish a range of acceptable torque values for competition in high school football. The results indicated that body weight can be used as an acceptable predictor of lower extremity muscular torque. Therefore, it was concluded that body weight can be utilized to produce an average range of desirable torque values for participation in high school football.J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 1983;5(1):2-6.Keywords
