Everyone has different daily activities and activities so that not everyone has the same muscle strength. It is very common for pre-elderly to experience decreased muscle mass and muscle strength, decreased muscle volume with age and replaced by fat tissue and connective tissue. Purpose: This study was to measure the strength of the superior extremity flexor muscles in male pre-elderly and male students. The tool used was a handgrip dynamometer. Method: This study used an observational design with a cross-sectional approach with a research sample of 30 people divided into two groups of 15 male pre-elderly and 15 male students who had muscle strength measurements then the data was applied to SPPS 29. Results: The results of the strength of the superior extremity flexor muscles in male pre-elderly were 27.82 kilogram and in male students were 28.00 kilogram. Conclusion: The strength of the superior extremity flexor muscles in male students was proven to be stronger than that of male pre-elderly]]>
