Objectives: To compare long-lever squeeze testing using the ForceFrame and the Copenhagen 5-SecondSqueeze test (5SST) for assessment of hip adduction strength and provoked groin pain in elite male soccer players.
Design: Cross-sectional study.
Setting: Pre-season testing at facilities of a Danish professional 1st tier soccer club and academy.
Participants: Elite male soccer players (n = 83, mean age; 16 +/- 2.7 years) from U13, U14, U15, U17, U19 and senior teams cleared for full training and match participation.
Results: Hip adduction strength was 16% lower in the ForceFrame. A Bland-Altman plot showed a systematic bias (-0.47 Nm/kg, 95% CI [-0.57; -0.38]) and lack of agreement (95% limits of agreement: -1.31; 0.39 Nm/kg). In the ForceFrame, provoked groin pain was less intense (median NRS 0 [IQR: 0-1] vs. 555T: 1 [IQR: 0-3], p < 0.001) and reported by fewer players (NRS >0) (27% [n = 22] vs. 555T: 61.4% [n = 51], p < 0.001).
Conclusions: The ForceFrame and the 5SST lack agreement and are not interchangeable methods. This may have implications when selecting a method for screening and detecting early groin problems in male soccer players. (C) 2022 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
