Effects of Targeted Isometric and Isotonic Hand Strengthening on Hand Function, Dexterity, Grip Strength and Grip Endurance in Competitive Female Badminton Athletes
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Isometric hand strengthening program and Isotonic hand strengthening program for Athletic Performance and Injury Risk. Currently recruiting, targeting 32 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This randomized clinical trial aims to determine the effects of targeted isometric and isotonic hand strengthening exercises on hand function, dexterity, grip strength and grip endurance in competitive female badminton athletes aged 18-30 years. Participants will be randomly allocated into two groups receiving either isometric or isotonic hand strengthening exercise programs performed three times per week for six weeks. Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline, 3rd week and 6th week using Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionnaire (MHQ), Purdue Pegboard Test or Nine-Hole Peg Test, Hand Dynamometer Test and Sustained Grip Test.
