Thank you for clarifying. I would be grateful if you could use the example of a quad muscle for grade 2 and 3 please :)

Certainly! Quite simple same principles… you can ask your patient to be side lying on the leg being tested and ask them to extend their knee on bed in front of them (G2) and then ask them to try knee extension in sitting (G3)
