The four categories of the cluster in terms of handgrip strength and adiposity variables empirically fit the fat but fit paradigm premises, such that an increasing trend can be observed by cluster category (UU < FU < FF < UF) in terms of muscular strength levels thus, individuals in FF and in UF clusters could be considered individuals with acceptable-to-good levels of muscular strength and, conversely, a decreasing trend (UF > FF > UU > FU) in terms of adiposity variables, although not all post hoc pairwise comparisons achieved statistical significance ( p < 0.05).
