Despite the impact of leg muscle strength on lower extremity motor performance-including walking and sit-to-stand transfer-it remains difficult to predict the relationship between bilateral leg muscle strength and lower extremity performance. Therefore, this study was designed to predict lower extremity function through the differential modeling of logarithmic and linear regression, based on knee extension strength.The study included 121 individuals living in the same community. The bilateral strengths of the knee extensors were measured using a handheld dynamometer, and the Timed Up & Go test (TUG) performance time and 5-m minimum walking times were assessed to predict lower extremity motor functions. Bilateral normalized knee extension muscle strengths and lower extremity motor function scores, including walking or TUG performance times, were assessed on the logarithmic and linear models. The Akaike information criterion (AIC) was used to evaluate the coefficient compatibility between the logarithmic regression model and the linear regression model.The AIC value for the linear model was lower than that for the logarithmic model regarding the walking time. For walking time estimation in the linear model, the coefficient value of knee extension strength was larger on the strong than on the weak side; however, the AIC value for the logarithmic model was lower than that for the linear model regarding TUG performance time. In the logarithmic model's TUG performance time estimation, the coefficient value of knee extension strength was larger on the weak than on the strong side.In conclusion, our study demonstrated different models reflecting the relationship between both legs' strengths and lower extremity performance, including the walking and TUG performance times.
