Introduction: Aging leads to significant physiological changes, including the decline of muscle strength and endurance, impacting the quality of life of the elderly. Objective: To classify elderly individuals with different levels of strength and compare their performance in functional tests that express the ability to perform daily living activities. Methodology: The study involved 36 elderly women aged between 60 to 84 years. Tests included handgrip strength, 30-second elbow flexion, 30-second chair stand, and Time Up Go. Statistical analyses included Shapiro-Wilk, Mann-Whitney tests, Pearson correlation, and Cohen's d, with a significance level of 5%. Results: The volunteers were separated into groups based on strength levels: low strength (LS) with 11.94 kilogram-force (kgf) and medium strength (MS) with 19.00 kgf. There was a significant statistical difference in elbow flexion (P=0.015; d=0.867) between the groups. A moderate and positive correlation (r=0.408; P=0.015; d=0.166) was found between strength levels and elbow flexion. A weak negative correlation (r=-0.384; P=0.023; d=0.147) was observed between Time Up Go and chair stand. Conclusion: The elderly in this study, with different levels of isometric strength, showed distinctions in functional test results, compromising physical autonomy and quality of life.
