    FLD 142: Get a Grip - How Your Hands & Feet Supercharge Your Workouts

    In strength training, the role of hands and feet is often underestimated, yet they serve as critical foundations for stability and strength. By learning to engage and position these extremities properly, we create a kinetic chain that supports the entire body. When our hands and feet are actively involved in stabilizing and generating force, we distribute tension more effectively, leading to greater overall strength and improved balance. This enhanced stability allows movements to become more fluid and efficient, reducing the risk of injury and maximizing the benefits of each exercise. Ultimately, the key to unlocking full-body strength lies in understanding how to harness the power of your hands and feet.
