It’s time to get a grip! 💪
A recent study found that individuals with higher grip strength had lower odds of developing hand osteoarthritis over time.
In fact, the group with the strongest grip strength had 54% lower odds of developing symptomatic hand osteoarthritis compared to the weakest group.
The good news? Grip strength is something you can train through resistance exercises, carrying weights, climbing, or using a grip trainer. 🏋️
Strengthening your hands and forearms may help support long-term hand health and function.
