Handgrip dynamometry in healthy adults
Clinical Nutrition, 2005To establish normal reference values for handgrip strength in healthy adult subjects using hand dynamometry.Descriptive study of 517 healthy volunteers (267 females and 229 males) aged 17-97 years. Grip strength was measured using two different handgrip dynamometers.

Variability of Handgrip Measurements
Engineering in Medicine, 1983Two calibrated grip dynamometers were used to measure left and right handgrips of seven healthy volunteers. Ten measurements were made with each instrument on each hand. The results showed that the cheaper instrument read high by up to 5 kgf and that the more expensive instrument was accurate to within 1 kgf throughout its range. The results expressed

A longitudinal study of handgrip strength asymmetry
American Journal of Human Biology, 2022AbstractObjectiveThe previous results from cross‐sectional studies indicate that there could be alterations across time in handgrip strength (HGS) asymmetry. One way to investigate this is to test the same children multiple times. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the laterality of HGS in healthy young children at two different time points separated by a

On the Association of Effort and Force of Handgrip
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1985The connection between prescribed levels of effort and force of handgrip was investigated using a ratio-production procedure. Subjects were 24 male right-handed students. The relation can be described as a linear function for both the right and the left hands.

Handgrip and fingerpinch strength
Physiotherapy Theory and Practice, 1994A total of 128 subjects (55 males, 73 females) were examined for isometric handgrip and fingerpinch strength using a Vigorimeter®, a simple hand-held dynamometer, suitable for everyday medical and ...

Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation and Prevention, 2008
Research has demonstrated the efficacy of isometric handgrip (IHG) training to attenuate resting blood pressure. These studies have relied on the use of programmable digital handgrips for training. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of simple, inexpensive spring-loaded handgrip devices in producing hypotensive effects.The study was a ...

Effort in Sustained and Phasic Handgrip Contractions
The American Journal of Psychology, 1971Subjects maintained handgrip contractions over time at constant levels of perceived effort. The resulting functions relating force to time were similar in overall shape from person to person and highly reliable for any given person. The reduction in exerted force over time was well described by an equation that comprises two exponential terms; the rate
