I looked it up because I couldn’t figure out how the hell to refer to a specific row of knuckles, first? second? do you count from the palm or the tip? figured better to be precise.
I dig it. I inferred that joint from your description but had to look up the term to be sure.
Punch knuckles, not door knocking knuckles. Climbing needs more strength in the door knocking knuckles, whereas many grip strength exercises like deadlift do more work on the punching knuckles, the metacarpophalangial joints.
I’ve seen doodads that connect to the fingertips to focus work on the proximal interphalangeal joints.
Metacarpophalangial, look at Dr. Knuckles over here
