This simple ball squeeze exercise helps strengthen the muscles of your hands, fingers, and forearms.
Grip strength isn’t just about the hands! ✋ A person’s grip strength serves as a powerful indicator of overall health, independence, and even fall risk in older adults 🚫
Studies have shown that seniors with weaker grip strength have a significantly higher chance of falling, reduced lower-limb strength, and greater fear of movement. Maintaining hand strength through simple exercises like the ball squeeze shown above can go a long way in supporting daily function and confidence in elderly.
✅ Benefits:
• Builds grip strength & endurance
• Supports balance and fall prevention indirectly
• Keeps hands mobile and joints flexible
• Makes daily tasks (like opening jars, carrying groceries, or pushing off from a chair) easier
All you need is a soft stress ball, and a few minutes a day 💪
