Reddit user grasshoppermouse combined grip strength by age and sex based on data from the [http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes/nhanes2011-2012/overview_g.htm National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2012]. Combined grip strength is the sum of the largest isometric grip strength readings from each hand, measured using a handgrip dynamometer. Grip strength, in turn, is an index of upper body strength. Comparing the combined grip strength of a sample size N = 7064 he could demonstrate that there are substantial sex differences in strength, corroborating evidence of women's natural dependence on men. | Reddit user grasshoppermouse combined grip strength by age and sex based on data from the [http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes/nhanes2011-2012/overview_g.htm National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2012].

Related to this, Sell et al. (2012) summarized how men, but not women, show distinct adaptations for combat such as stronger bones, more muscle mass, faster coordination and orientation, less confusion, better metabolism. See the table (copied from Table 1 in the paper). | Related to this, Sell et al.
