Wrist circles
Gently move the wrists before gripping work.
How to do it
- Hold your forearms comfortably in front of you.
- Turn your hands through small, slow circles.
- Reverse direction and relax your hands.
Form check
Use a loose hand rather than a tightly clenched fist.
Make it easier
Move one wrist at a time through a smaller arc.
Move within a comfortable range and keep breathing. Stop if a movement causes pain or you feel unwell. Ask a qualified trainer for help with unfamiliar equipment.
