Investigating the relationships between anthropometric characteristics, grip strength, hand flexibility and hand performance in woodcarvers
The findings underscore the importance of anthropometric dimensions, grip strength, and flexibility in enhancing woodcarving performance. The implementation of ergonomic interventions aimed at improving grip strength and wrist flexibility could increase efficiency and reduce injury risks in manual professions.
