  • Perform 3 Identical Weight Bearing Tests on each hand

    If you do not have a mechanical (non-digital) bathroom scale, do NOT perform this test.  The results will not be accurate, nor valid.

     

    Non-digital scales can be purchased for less than $10 from many retailers. Don't forget to check with your parents or grandparents.  They may have one. 

  • If weighing in pounds, please convert all test results into kilograms (kg) using the chart below.
