The Stand-Up Test. The Stand-Up Test evaluates lower limb strength according to stand—in a single-leg or double-leg stance—from 4 different heights (10, 20, 30, and 40 cm). The test is scored as 0–8, with the scores defined as follows: 0 (unable to stand); 1–4 (able to stand—using both legs—from 40, 30, 20, and 10 cm, respectively); and 5–8 (able to stand—using one leg—from 40, 30, 20, and 10 cm, respectively). Stand-Up Test scores of 0–1, 2, 3–4, and 5–8 points are equivalent to LS-3, LS-2, LS-1, and non-LS, respectively.
