power grip

A power grip is a way of holding an object firmly using the entire hand, typically with the fingers wrapped around the item and the palm applying force. It involves strong finger flexion and thumb opposition, allowing for maximum grip strength and control. This type of grip is used when lifting heavy objects or applying significant force, such as holding a hammer or a suitcase handle. It activates larger hand muscles, providing stability and strength, essential for tasks requiring secure, forceful holding.
