ACTION TIP: Grip Strength, again

We are Aging Intelligently, one step at a time.

Before you eat,

Open and close your hands as fast as you can for 15 seconds. Rest (which you will need) for 5 seconds. Then repeat it twice more, resting in between. You might have to work up to three sets. It’s tough!

This is a great grip strength exercise, and it works your forearms: supinators and pronators. If you don’t know what supinators and pronators are, Google them. It will work your brain, and you will learn something new. Grip strength helps you hang onto things without constantly dropping them, and it’s an overall indication of your health.

Only then, eat.

This adds a habit you already do (eating) to a habit that you want to form (grip strength).

That’s Aging Intelligently
