Background: The weakness in the gluteal maximus muscle can cause altered biomechanics that can lead to genu recurvatum. The study's aim is to look for any relationships between GR and GM. Methods: A case control study carried out with 42 subjects with genu recurvatum and 42 subjects without genu recurvatum were included between the age group 18–30 years. Goniometer is used to measure the genu recurvatum angle. Hand-held Dynamometer was used to measure gluteus maximus muscle strength. Results: Significant positive correlation between right GR angle and right gluteus muscle strength (0.0018) and negative correlation between left GR angle and left gluteus muscle strength (−0.2170). Conclusion: There is statistically significant association between genu recurvatum angle and gluteus maximus muscle strength with p |
