Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
1. Active joint position sense (Joint position sense in Absolute Error (AE) and variable Error (VE)) is measured using the Biodex 3 at baseline <br>2. Passive joint position sense is measured using the Biodex 3 at baseline<br>3. Active joint position sense is measured using Biodex 3 after fatigue<br>4. Passive joint position sense is measured using Biodex 3 after fatigue

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
1. Fatigue Index (Fatigue Index = (initial peak torque - final peak torque) / initial peak torque * 100) is measured using Biodex 3 after first test<br>2. Work is measured using Biodex 3 after first test<br>3. Work at first third measured using Biodex 3 after first test<br>4. Work at last third measured using Biodex 3 after first test
