Measuring muscular strength can be accomplished using various methods. One common approach is the one-repetition maximum (1RM) test, which measures the maximum amount of weight that a person can lift for one repetition of a given exercise. This method provides a straightforward indication of an individual's maximal strength.
Another approach involves strength endurance tests, where the focus is on the number of repetitions a person can perform with a specific weight. Although this method measures muscular endurance, it provides insight into relative muscular strength. Fitness assessments should always be conducted under professional supervision to ensure safety and accuracy.
