Abstract
The study focused in the determination of the relationship of grip strength as to forearm circumference; forearm positions; whether in neutral, pronated, and supinated position; categorizing male vs. female average grip strength in any given forearm position. A significant value shows that male have greater grip strength value than females. Greater grip strength output observed in subjects having larger forearm circumference compared to those with smaller forearm circumference. the greatest grip strength is also observed in Forearm at neutral position followed by supination and pronation at 90 respectively.
