Where it all started
It all started with a simple water bottle
My mother, a vibrant and active woman in her 70s, was struggling to open it. Despite being fit for her age, her grip just wasn't strong enough. Witnessing her frustration sparked a deep curiosity in me.

The impact of grip strength
My research led me down a rabbit hole of fascinating discoveries
It turned out that handgrip strength is much more than just a measure of physical power; it's actually a crucial biomarker for overall health and ageing. Studies revealed strong correlations between grip strength and a range of health issues, from fragility fractures and heart health to menopause and even cognitive decline.
This revelation was a lightbulb moment. I realised that my mother's struggle with the water bottle wasn't just an isolated incident; it was a sign of a much larger issue affecting countless adults as they age.
