Abstract

Handwriting is a neuro-muscular phenomenon and is unique in nature. The potential of hand in designing the writing involves complex mechanism of the unite movement of finger’s, thumb and hand which is operated by the timed neural response system. It’s been said that any two objects greater than molecular size have some variation. And so it’s with the handwriting. We not at all write anything absolutely the same. The way a person moves their body determines how differently their skills can differ. Every element of writing is movement, and the more a writer moves, the more skilled they are. These subtle variations in personal traits define the boundaries of a person's handwriting.. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to study the hypothesis ‘higher the movement higher the skill’. For the analysis the handwriting sample were taken from the individual who do weightlifting or gym and half sample were taken from the normal people who don’t prefer gym. Results indicate a massive difference in variation of the handwriting of the weightlifters and non-lifters, due to stiffness of muscles there is less movement in their body while writing.
