In testing strength of the muscles, do we apply resistance to movement from the begining?
When applying resistance do we increase our resistance from one finger then two finger and finally to full resistance ,determing strength? or do apply just estimate the strength from applying restistance in genereal?

U have no time in exam to gradually increase ur resistance..Just apply resistance with ur hand to all relevant flexions and extensions of limbs.
