This cross-sectional study measured relative leg strength (N/kg) across six standing movements in 99 healthy, non-professional athletes (males and females aged 20–30, 40–50, and 60–70 years). Results confirmed that men exhibited significantly greater strength than women across all six directions (17% to 35% difference). Furthermore, a marked age-related decline was consistently observed in both sexes, with the largest and most clinically relevant differences (often exceeding 30%) concentrated in the transition to the 60–70-year range. Methodologically, these findings are limited to demonstrating age-related differences rather than longitudinal decline and are specific to an active, healthy cohort. This study demonstrates the sensor-based stand as an efficient, objective tool for comprehensive strength assessment, but its clinical utility is prospective and requires further validation against diverse and pathological patient populations.en1424-822020251MDPI AGhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Technology::610: Medicine, HealthTechnology::621: Applied Physics::621.3: Electrical Engineering, Electronic EngineeringJournal Articlehttps://doi.org/10.15480/882.1643510.3390/s2601006910.15480/882.16435Journal Article
