Get a Grip
There is overwhelming evidence that hand grip strength is related to many health outcomes such as bone density, fractures and falls, diabetes, sleep problems, cognitive impairment, depression among others. Grip strength may serve as an indicator for overall health. Researchers caution that good grip strength is an indicator, not a cause, of health benefits. They also encourage overall strength conditioning as a way to achieve many health benefits.
