3 Exercises for Wrist Pain & Injuries

Written by

These 3 exercises will help you if your wrist hurts in extension, which is when the back of the hand is lifted closer towards the forearm.

They’re also great to use as part of your warmup if you’re doing anything that requires full wrist extension, like Cleans and Handstand Pushups.

For all 3 exercises, make sure your elbow stays totally locked out and do not push yourself hard or fast – go slow and easy and to effectively mobilize the joint.

Even if you don’t have wrist pain, try this out to see how it feels – you’ll likely feel a lot more free after doing it.

And if you think it’s a good one or you know anyone with wrist pain i.e. anybody who types/mouses a lot, please share it with them so they can feel better (and so they’ll owe you one ;-).

Awesome, can you do a video on tennis elbow exercises? It’s been bugging me for 6 months now. Outside part of elbow. Thanks

Nice!! I’d like to see more wrist mobility, as well as ankle mobility!

Great exercises. Only wish I’d been given these when I broke my wrist 7yrs ago.

These are awesome! And this is timely. I have been having some pain in my right wrist when I do push ups. Going to see how this helps 🙂

Hi Eric,
Super excited to try these excercises for my wrists. I do a lot of yoga, and my wrists have the tendency to get sore. I will be incorporating these excercises into my practice.
Thanks SO much!
