Wrist Circuit

Starting Posture

Start in a comfortable seated or standing position with your arms by your sides.

How to Exercise

Begin by extending your arms straight in front of you at shoulder height, palms facing down. Hold this position for 30 seconds. Next, perform wrist flexion by pointing your fingers towards the floor, keeping your elbows straight. Hold for 30 seconds. Follow this by reversing the movement and performing wrist extension, pointing your fingers towards the ceiling. Hold for 30 seconds. Finally, rotate your wrists so that your palms face each other and hold this position for 30 seconds. Repeat the circuit 2-3 times.

Breath Control

Focus on deep, diaphragmatic breathing throughout the exercise. Inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth, maintaining a steady rhythm.

Common errors

Common errors include hunching the shoulders, clenching the fists, or holding your breath. Focus on maintaining proper posture and breathing throughout the exercise.

Comments and tips

Keep your shoulders relaxed and avoid tensing up any other muscles in your body. Move slowly and mindfully through each position, feeling the stretch in your wrists and forearms. If you experience any discomfort or pain, ease off the stretch.

Cautions

Avoid overextending your wrists or applying excessive pressure. If you have any pre-existing wrist or hand injuries, consult with a healthcare professional before attempting this exercise.
