Which test in the SFT focuses specifically on core strength?

The timed get-up-and-go test is designed to assess balance, agility, and functional mobility, but it does not specifically target core strength. In contrast, the chair stand test is primarily focused on lower body strength, particularly the strength of the leg muscles. The arm curl test evaluates upper body strength, specifically targeting the muscles in the arms. The six-minute walk test measures aerobic endurance and endurance with minimal focus on core strength.

The appropriate test that focuses specifically on core strength is not covered by the provided options, but when examining the listed choices, it’s essential to consider that none directly assess core strength in isolation. Core strength is often indirectly assessed through functional mobility tests, which include aspects of balance and stabilization, but not as the primary focus. Therefore, for a clear identification of a test that focuses purely on core strength, one would typically look for assessments such as the torse stability test or similar, which are not among the provided options.
