hand grips...

[william]

I looked at the physical fitness link and I want to know what hand grips are?

What are they?

 

[ab136]

just a device you hold in your hand to arms length-shoulder high.....then as you lower your arm you squeeze the two handles together on the device.  It measures your hand strength.  Nothing to worry about.

yeah as long as your not very weak you wont fail

 

[J0HN]

oh,I thought it was something else...it doesent seem to bad

 

[spenco]

DO A SEARCH!!! This question has been asked and answered umpteen times before. 

 

[jmackenzie_15]

[Mischiefz]

hand grip was a joke, I was kinda worried about it thinking my grip was weak but hit 68 first hand and was told I passed lol....did second hand just to check and hit 67  ;D

 

[william]

Oh Ok,  thanks guys

 

[J0HN]

whats The pass 70 with the both hands combined ?

 

[Baloo]

70 combined, yes. When you can beat the test with one arm, you know it is far too easy...  :

I only scored 39 for each hand and I passed, so nothing to worry about.

What's your point?
If people have a question regarding the grip test this thread will come up on a search, no need to have someone bring back this thread an other old ones to the front page for no reason.

You need a minimum of 75 on the grip test.. How did u pass with a 39?

 

[3aXap]

he means 39 on each arm. they add them up

the last time i took it (ive done quite a few times), the PERT guy guy had me hold my arms straight down by my sides and squeese.

all i remeber is the needle pointed straight up when i was done each time each hand...

whats that worth?

It's like a speed-o-meter in a car..There are numbers all around it like a scale read it
