Grade 4:  Patient can hold the position against strong to moderate resistance, has full range of motion. Grade 3:  Patient can tolerate no resistance but can perform themovement through the full range of motion. Grade 2:  Patient has all or partial range of motion in the gravity eliminated position. Grade 1:  The muscle/muscles can be palpated while the patient is performing the action in the gravity eliminated position.  Grade 0:  No contractile activity can be felt in the gravity eliminated position
