Abstract excerpt
This study examined phenotypic and functional responses to extreme asymmetry in hand use, and recorded the grip forces that occur during the tennis serve to assess the forces that contribute to asymmetry. Compressive grip performance was measured for Division I collegiate tennis players (24 female, 24 male) and nonathlete college students (18 females, 17 males) during three experiments: single-repetition maximum...
