Wrist injury

[IanW]

Have you tried a powerball? I've found it quite effective.

 

Them power balls are brilliant, excellent for working the fore arms and helping with RSI wrist, elbow and even shoulder injuries.

 

you can't really strengthen the wrist, best to try and strengthen the fore arm.

 

if it's ligament or tendon damage in te wrist that's causing you pain, try have a rest with wrist support and then look towards physio and fore arm work, wringing out a bath towel is good, power balls are good, or some sort of weight attached to a string on a bit of dowel held out at arms length shoulder height and just just wrist and fore arm movement to raise as lower the weight by winding the string on the dowel.

Perhaps watching less porn would ease the strain a little?

Good forearm/wrist exercise - not necessarily reccomended for injured wrists, but good for general strength

 

Get a stick roughly 1ft long, 1"diameter

 

Tie a good price of string to the stick, roughly 36" long

Tie a weight to the other end - 5kg should be more than enough

 

hold the stick like bike handlebars, wind the weight all the way up and then all the way down, then do it again using the opposite motion (wrists towards you rather than away). Kind of hard to explain, but once you set it up, its obvious.

 

10 reps up+down, and your forearms will be burning

Used to do that when I rode enduro races on motor bikes to stop tendons in the hands locking up and jamming the throttle open!
