Getting A Grasp on Grip

Grasping an object for v arious tasks requires different coordination and different strength requirements. We utilize combinations of fingers and the wrists to augment the holding, pulling, squeezing, lifting and manipulating of objects.  Applying the needed force with each function requires adjustments in body position, arm position, grip span and the interaction between each digit, all factors in maneuvering.
