Angle-torque relationship of the subtalar pronators and supinators in younger and elderly males and females Marco Hagen, Daniel Sanchez-Bergmann, Sebastian Seidel and Matthias Lahner Journal of Foot and Ankle Research 2015, 8:64 doi:10.1186/s13047-015-0125-2 Quote: Background The angle-dependent torque capacity of the subtalar pronators and supinators is important to maintain dynamic ankle stabilisation. Based on the peak torques during maximum voluntary isometric pronation and supination across the subtalar range of motion, the strength curves of younger and elderly males and females were investigated. Methods Maximum voluntary isometric subtalar pronator and supinator strength tests were administered to 30 younger and 30 elderly volunteers (each 15 male and 15 female subjects).
