ABSTRACT:
A hand grip and arm strength testing apparatus is used as part of a pursuit and restraint circuit in a constable selection process. The apparatus which simulates the action required to move an uncooperative individual's arms to a handcuffing position comprises a support structure with a pair of moveable arms each of which is biased to a widespread position relative to the other arm. Each of the arms has a handle with a lock which is biased to a locking position and which locks against movement of the arm on which the handle is provided. The lock is moveable to an unlocking position by hand grip pressure sufficient to overcome the bias on the handle lock whereby the arm is then swingable inwardly from its widespread position when sufficient arm strength is applied to, and overcomes, the bias on the arm.
