Grip strength reveals: Heart health

Your grip strength may reveal very concerning medical issues, as proven by a Lancet study on nearly 140,000 adults from 17 countries. According to the study, a weak grip strength predicts a higher risk of heart attack or stroke.

Not only that, but doctors believe a weak grip is a better predictor of death than blood pressure.

So, what can you do, on top of contacting your doctor immediately? Experts recommend aerobic exercise and whole-body strength training, as grip strength is a marker of overall muscle strength and fitness. This is especially important if you no longer feel confident in your grip- it’s time to act now before it’s too late!
