This randomized controlled trial will investigate whether adding neurodynamic tensioning to a grip strengthening program provides additional improvements in hand grip strength in healthy adults. Sixty participants aged 18 to 40 years will be randomly assigned to two groups. Both groups will perform a standardized grip strengthening program for six weeks, three days per week. The experimental group will additionally receive neurodynamic tensioning exercises targeting the median and ulnar nerves. Hand grip strength will be assessed at baseline, week 3, and week 6. The study aims to determine whether neurodynamic tensioning provides additional benefit beyond grip strengthening alone.

Neuromuscular diseases are rare diseases for which significant progress has been made in the context of diagnosis thanks to advances in molecular techniques, but the intimate mechanisms of lesion formation remain poorly understood. Advances in cellular and molecular biology, the development of a few animal models, such as transgenic mice, which make it possible to mimic human pathology have made it possible to better understand the physiopathology of these diseases. However, they still do so very imperfectly and incompletely, making it even more necessary than ever to study diseased human muscle tissue to find new avenues of research or to confirm results obtained by experimentation. The purpose of this collection of tissue samples for neuro-muscular purposes is to collect such samples under the best conditions in order to promote basic and translational research on muscle diseases. This is why the CHU de Bordeaux wishes to keep the remainders of samples taken as part of the treatment to constitute a collection of biological samples and associated data kept according to quality standards and in compliance with the regulations in force.
