No significant correlation was found between the strength of the assessed hip muscles and the amount of movement into valgus\/varus. In the varus group a moderate positive correlation was found between the External Rotation\/Internal Rotation force ratio and the amount of knee varus during the forward lunge movement (r\u200a=\u200a0.31, p\u200a=\u200a0.03).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The findings suggest that in healthy subjects hip muscle strength is not correlated to the amount of valgus\/varus movement of the knee during a forward lunge.
