      Utility of a shortened isometric midthigh pull protocol for assessing rapid force 
      production in athletes. J Strength Cond Res 36(7): 1819-1825, 2022-The purpose of 
      this investigation was to determine the magnitude of difference, reliability, and 
      relationship to performance of a shortened isometric midthigh pull (IMTP) 
      protocol. Fourteen strength-trained men (age: 26.8 +/- 5.0 years, height: 176.3 +/- 
      6.9 cm, body mass: 86.8 +/- 13.9 kg, and training age: 8.5 +/- 6.9 years) performed 
      1-second (SHORT) and traditional (TRAD) IMTP protocols during consecutive weeks. 
      Peak force (PF), instantaneous force (90 & 200 ms), rate of force development 
      (RFD) (0-90 ms & 0-200 ms), and impulse (0-90 ms & 0-200 ms) from each protocol 
      were collected. Paired samples t test and Hedge's g were calculated to determine 
      the magnitude of difference in each variable between protocols. Within-session 
      and between-session reliability was assessed with intraclass correlation 
      coefficient, coefficient of variation, and 95% confidence intervals. Static jumps 
      were performed to compare relationships of the IMTP variables from each protocol 
      with jumping performance. There was no statistically significant (p > 0.05) 
      difference in PF between the protocols (p = 0.345; g = -0.07). All early 
      force-time variables were significantly higher in the SHORT protocol (p = 
      <0.001-0.018; g = 0.38-0.79). The SHORT protocol resulted in more reliable RFD 
      measures within-session. Correlations with jumping performance were mostly 
      similar between protocols (r = 0.253-0.660). The SHORT IMTP protocol resulted in 
      comparable PF values and considerably higher early force-time characteristics 
      despite a restrained time to produce force and shorter rest. The SHORT protocol 
      allows for an accurate assessment of rapid force-generating abilities while 
      necessitating shorter collection periods than typical IMTP protocols.
