Wrist Extension Stretch activates the muscles and blood flow. Stretching your wrists can stimulate your forearm and hand muscles. The upward extension movement will slightly target the outer region of the forearms.

Exercise Instructions

  • Step 1

    Stand up straight and extend both arms forward.
  • Step 2

    Bend your right wrist back to point your fingers towards the sky, then grab them with your left hand. Pull your fingers back, feeling the stretch. We keep time.

Exercise Tips

  • Avoid stretching too much. The muscles and tendons in the hand can be damaged, so apply pressure gradually.
  • Avoid bending your elbow. This reduces the stretch.
