The exercise that improve the muscle strength on the hip joint is recommended to prevent the falls, because the fall of elder people is caused the serious injury. We need to measure the muscle strength to test the training effect when we make the training, but the measurement method of muscle strength on hip joint is not developed yet. The purpose of this study was to develop the measurement equipment of muscle strength on hip joint easily. It was possible to measure the isometric muscle strength by using the developed equipment that had inclined chair on sitting position.
