Get Strong Wrists (NO PAIN!)

hey everyone Daniel Vardhan all here for Fitness fa Q's in this video I'm going to be covering wrist and forearm strength if you're someone that's involved in calisthenics or you put a lot of pressure on your hands and your wrists this video is a must watch because just stretching the wrist joint alone is only one half of the puzzle you need to be strengthening up the forearm muscles to stabilize the restraint let me explain more for most of you involved in doing handstands doing push-ups things of that nature where we need to put the wrist

joint into extension we should strengthen up wrist extension it literally is that simple it really is that simple that's physiotherapy 101 what position do we want to get in we need to get enough range in that position but we also need to be stable and strong in that position so what I want you to do keep doing your wrist mobility sequences keep working through wrist flexion wrist extension alna and radial deviation that's fantastic that's great don't stop doing that what I encourage you to do as well depending on which area of restriction tightness or pain

that you have I want you to spend time strengthening that position let's apply this concept to another area that people have issues with which is parallel bars deep bars or parallettes and that's when you're going into your things like plancha's etc etc where you're forced to work through all night and radial deviation same thing applies you've done your passive mobility work to start with on the floor with the different floor drills then you want to couple this with some active mobility work strengthening up the stabilizers of that restraint the forearm muscles in the position of

interest in the position of weakness whew in the position that gives you pain or discomfort this is the only way that you're going to get range tolerable and comfortable when you're doing the exercises that are meaningful for you let's use one more range of motion which is relevant for the calisthenics athlete and that is going into wrist flexion think of things where you've got an over grip such as a muscle up if you find that that position is uncomfortable really gives you some wrist joint pain it's probably a combination of two things one you're not

used to holding that false grip so just practicing that in and of itself is going to improve that position improve the strength and decrease the pain that you're experiencing but you should also take ownership of your body take ownership of increasing the stability of that restaurant you can do this by working through wrist flexion so the exact same concept applies before we've got pain in a position so we want to strengthen it and expose it to the demands that it's required of strengthening up the muscles around the restraint stable wrist equals no issues when you're

doing your muscle ups you're watching this and you're probably thinking Daniel all this science it sounds fantastic it's great but I'm not going to do it I'm not going to sit there and do multiple sets just because I want to increase the strength of my wrist I agree with you it's pretty boring but if you intelligently put it into your training program you're not going to miss out on it how many times do you just sit around for 2-3 minutes just doing nothing between your next set this is the perfect opportunity just to do a

bit of stability of the wrist joint this is your time if you just use two or three rest periods in a whole workout to get your wrist strengthening in you're going to get it in I'm not saying you have to go and do a separate session of wrist mobility or wrist strength I understand what it's like I know that your training is the most important thing to you and you need to integrate it into your schedule otherwise you're not going to do it if you enjoyed today's video and you want to show some love and
