How to retest
Use the same Handexer unit, handle setting, body position and verbal encouragement. Complete three trials per hand and retain the highest value.
Evidence and limitations
The international percentiles pool 2.4 million adults and are harmonised to a hydraulic reference dynamometer. Handexer readings are useful for consistent tracking but are not assumed interchangeable with Jamar/hydraulic measurements.
Tomkinson et al. international grip norms
Leong et al. grip strength and health outcomes
Protocol, norms and evidence.
Position: seated, shoulder adducted, elbow exactly 90°, forearm and wrist neutral. Adjust the handle to the hand. Perform three maximal trials per hand.
Interpretation: the five bands are published age- and sex-specific quintiles, not a diagnosis or an individual lifespan forecast.
