Table 1.
The test and retest reliability of knee flexion range of motion (DF ROM), maximal voluntary isometric contraction torque of plantar flexors (MVC-ISO), maximal voluntary concentric contraction torque (MVC-CON), muscle soreness at stretching, MVC-ISO, MVC-CON, palpation, pain-pressure threshold (PPT), and tissue hardness.

| Knee flexion ROM (°) | 0.825 | 1.6 ± 1.3 |
| MVC-ISO (Nm) | 0.928 | 2.8 ± 1.6 |
| MVC-CON (Nm) | 0.958 | 2.3 ± 1.3 |
| Muscle soreness | ||
| At stretching (mm) | 0.987 | 4.9 ± 3.9 |
| At MVC-ISO (mm) | 0.946 | 5.5 ± 3.9 |
| At MVC-CON (mm) | 0.733 | 5.5 ± 3.3 |
| At palpation (mm) | 0.983 | 4.9 ± 1.8 |
| PPT (kg) | 0.966 | 7.9 ± 5.5 |
| Tissue hardness (N) | 0.838 | 5.3 ± 2.6 |
