To calculate the Age Adjusted Strength (AS):
\[ AS = S \times (1 - (A - 30) \times 0.01) \]
Where:
Age adjusted strength is a measure of physical strength that takes into account the age of an individual. As people age, their muscle mass and strength typically decline. This adjustment allows for a fair comparison of strength across different age groups by normalizing the strength values to a common reference age, often 30 years. This is particularly useful in sports and fitness assessments to evaluate performance relative to age.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ AS = 100 \times (1 - (40 - 30) \times 0.01) = 90 \]
The age adjusted strength is 90.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ AS = 150 \times (1 - (50 - 30) \times 0.01) = 120 \]
The age adjusted strength is 120.
