Introduction to Manual Muscle Testing (MMT) General Testing Concepts Refer to appropriate textbooks and manual muscle testing resources and guides for patient conditions suitable for dynamometry testing, further testing methods and protocols, and for evaluation of test data. Reasons for Muscle testing: Screening: measurement of the subject's strength against a know norm (i.e., grip strength of fireman) or against a benchmark value needed to perform a given task (i.e.
