Using a grip dynamometer

Set the handle to an appropriate position for the participant, use a consistent testing posture and protocol, and record the peak force produced. Consistent positioning is important when comparing repeat measurements.

For test setup and recording, read how to test grip strength. Check the calculator’s reference population, device and protocol before using its interpretation with your measurements.
