Hand Grip Dynamometer

Shop on Amazon

Use a hand grip dynamometer or similar grip tool to measure grip strength, often comparing one hand at a time. It’s used as a simple recovery marker because grip tends to drop after hard training, poor sleep, or inadequate recovery, and tracking it can help flag when you’re not fully recovered.

There certainly are more sophisticated tools too as a PT. We have hand-grip dynamometers... But if it's, listen, if you're an athlete, the 200, 300 bucks it costs to have one of those would be well worth the added investment.
