Response of hand grip, pinch grip and body composition to type of effort between female physiotherapist and female dentist at internship year.
Fifty physiotherapist and fifty dentist females will be selected from faculty of physical therapy and faculty of dentistry at Badr University in Cairo BUC, both at internship year, and will be assigned into two groups. Group A consists of fifty physiotherapist females will participate in this group and will be assessed at the beginning of the study and after 6 months of clinical work. Group B consists of fifty dentist females will participate in this group and will be assessed at the beginning of the study and after 6 months of clinical work. Digital hand dynamometer will be used to assess hand grip strength and InBody device will be used to assess changes in body composition at the beginning and the end of the study.
