Maximum Quads Force

[Jennifer Scot Dikeman]

Hi All!

I am trying to find information on the maximum force value obtainable
by the quadriceps muscle group during an isometric contraction. I have seen
one citation of 3000 N. If anyone could offer suggestions I would greatly
appreciate it.

Thanks in advance!
