Background and Purpose: Dynamic handgrip strength endurance is essential for daily
activities that require repetitive gripping movements for a sustained period. At this time, there …

Maximal handgrip strength and endurance are important indicators of upper limb function in
older adults. Up to now, there is insufficient information regarding the efficacy of specialized …

Purpose This study investigated the reliability of static and dynamic handgrip strength
endurance using different protocols and indicators for the assessment of strength …

Aim This study aimed to determine the association of handgrip strength with isometric and
isokinetic strength (hip, knee and ankle extensor/flexor muscles), and functional capacity in …

Objectives Previously, we developed and validated an easy test to measure muscle
fatigability during sustained maximal handgrip contraction in older persons using a Martin …

Background: Many professions involve manual gripping tasks requiring dynamic
movements, concentric and eccentric muscle contractions, and static tasks like application of …

Purpose Handgrip strength is considered as important indicator for general fitness in older
adults. However, it does not notably reflect adaptations from whole-body training but may …

The global population aged 60 years and over will reach nearly 2.1 billion by 2050. During
the aging process, the strength of the musculoskeletal system decreases and it is essential …

Age-related reductions in physical performance are important when thresholds required for
independent activity are approached. Much rehabilitation aims to alleviate disability by …

Background Muscle fatigue, a prominent symptom in older patients, can be assessed by
sustained maximal handgrip testing. The force decline during sustained maximal contraction …
