Welcome to the Chris review today I'm taking a look at this handheld dynamometer I think I said
0:04
that right now I actually tested this out for quite some time so I've been using it for a while so I
0:08
already opened it out of the box and this is basically just a grip tester now you can also
0:13
use this for isometric exercises in fact it actually does give you a few exercises on the
0:19
instructions if you want to do it before starting this you can also adjust the handle to make sure
0:24
that the grip is going to be roughly 90 degrees with the fingers so in this case this is going to
0:28
be the perfect angle for me. Otherwise, I can move this clockwise or counterclockwise. And then when
0:34
I turn it on, this is the screen I get. So it gives me three pieces of information, the user
0:39
the gender and the age. Now this is going to be my user profile. But we can have up to 19 different
0:44
user profiles by clicking up and then we could see the other ones that are set. Or if I go down
0:50
it'll go to the ones before. And in this case, it's going to hold up to 19 profiles. So let me
0:56
go back to one and then when I press on, it'll change to the different setting which is going to be gender. And I can
1:01
switch between male or female, press it one more time. And this
1:04
is going to be for age. And this is going to be me so I can press start And now when I pull it for a few seconds there it read the reading at 52 pounds And it considered weak for my age range And it going to be two out of five bars and after a few seconds here you can see it switches and that means I decreased my strength by 48 pounds based on the last recorded reading and
1:29
the max weight we can get this up to is going to be 198 pounds. Now let me do an actual reading
1:35
test so I can show you. So just again press start and I'm going to try my right hand. Now in this
1:40
case I am going to stand up and just do it as much as I can oh yeah that hurt my fingers 114.8
1:50
which is considered normal for my age range and one two three four five out of I guess the six
1:55
there and it's saying I went up 14.6 pounds compared to like a previous reading that I did
2:04
now let me press start and then now left hand All right, so this one's going to give me a little bit more at 120.6 pounds
2:16
considered normal for my age range, and then five out of six, I guess, for the strength
2:22
And I have a long way to go to maxing this out just because it's up to 198 pounds
2:27
but this is a good way to test out your grip strength, and then also use it for some exercises
2:31
as suggested on the booklet. But yeah, that's a quick look at the handheld Dianameter
