Elbow Safety Best / Worst 30 out of 176

Best 30 / Worst 30 for Elbow Safety - July 2001

The best (lowest rank number) are the safest for the elbow; the worst are dangerous. See what causes tennis elbow. The macro criterion of Elbow Safety comprises the evaluation criteria of 1.5*Elbow Crunch, Torque, Shock, 0.5*Moment, and 0.5*Flex. Moment and Flex were weighted half as much as Torque and Shock, which are more important, and Elbow Crunch was weighted 1.5 times Torque and Shock, because it is even more important. Each of these evaluation criteria (Torque, etc.) produced composite rankings when the results under the five benchmark conditions were compiled, weighted, summed, and sorted. These composite rankings then were compiled, weighted, summed, and sorted to produce rankings under the macro criterion of Elbow Safety. All of the Top 30 are excellent.
