The comparison of the effect of passive hanging and hand grip strengthener ring compression on grip strength, postural function and range of motion in a healthy active population: a randomized experimental study

Grip strength is increasingly used as a bioindicator of quality of life in both older and younger population. That's why we decided to research methods for increasing grip strength. The first method involves using resistance rings for grip strength training, while the second method involves passive hanging. The aim of this study was to investigate two methods for training grip strength and compare their effects on the physiological parameters of the human body after a month of systematic involvement in the daily lives of study participants, with the goal of determining their potential for rehabilitation. Participants were healthy, active, recreational athletes aged 20-60 years. They were stratified and randomly divided into two groups: one trained with resistance rings, and the other was passive hanging. Training sessions lasted 7 minutes each day, and the study duration was 1 month. Input and output measurements included examination of ranges of motion in the shoulders and spine, evaluation of postural functions and grip strength assessment using a dynamometer. A total of 31 participants completed the study, with an average age of 40.7 years, including 15 women and 16 men. Most participants were right-handed, with only one left-handed and two ambidextrous individuals. Statistical analysis revealed...
