Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of MyotonPRO in measuring muscle tone and mechanical properties of the wrist extensor and flexor muscles in healthy young adults. The secondary aim is to examine whether grip strength has any effect on muscle tone and biomechanical properties.
