Wrist Curls Help You to Avoid Carpal Tunnel, Tendinitis and Similar Wrist Muscle Injuries!

Wrist Curls are a great exercise to strengthen the muscles on the inside of the wrists. This move will also help to protect you from repetitive strain injuries.

Carpal tunnel syndrome, bursitis and tendinitis are some of the more common of these types of injuries.

Each involves pain in the muscles, tendons and nerves of the hand, wrist and arm.

Step One

Kneel at the side of a bench or chair. Hold a dumbbell in each hand.

Let your forearms rest on the bench.

See figure 1

As you hold the dumbbells, your hands should hang over the side, palms facing away from you.



Step Two

Slowly roll your wrist upward so that your palms now face your upper arms and shoulders.

See figure 2

This is one full rep. Do two sets of 8 reps. Work up to 3-4 sets.



To Your Health!
