The wrist flexion stretch helps improve flexibility and mobility in the wrist joint. The downward, flexion motion will slightly target the inner region of the forearms.
Instructions
Stand tall and extend both arms out directly in front of you.
Bend your right wrist down to point your fingers to the floor, then grab them with your left hand. Pull the fingers back, feeling the stretch. Hold for the prescribed time.
Trainer’s Tips
Avoid stretching too far. The muscles and tendons in the hand can be injured, so apply pressure gradually.
Avoid bending the elbow. This reduces the stretch.
