The wrist extensors are a group of nine individual muscles on the back of the forearm that act on the wrist and fingers and help carry out complex movements of the hands such
as wrist extension, or moving the top of the hands backward toward the wrists.
Wrist extension stretches and exercises are the most important with the aim of gradually increasing the load transmitted through the tendon and its attachment whilst also being within the limits of pain.
That is to say, if the wrap is covering the joint line, you might be causing dysfunctional movement to happen at the wrist when you go
into wrist extension positions, say, as in a handstand.
Don't place them OVER the wrist joint: while you do not want the wrap to be too far onto the forearm (providing no support) and you do want to prevent
excessive wrist extension, remember that in many movements you are wearing the wraps for, you need to actually extend the wrist.
Additionally, they enhance your child's
wrist extension and bilateral coordination, while also developing her gross motor skills.
The reverse wrist curl or
wrist extension is the perfect way to complement the wrist curl.
To perform a reverse wrist curl or
wrist extension, position yourself in the same way as for a regular wrist curl.
Each rep of the reverse wrist curl or
wrist extension should be performed in a controlled manner to ensure the correct muscles are working and you are not using gravity to help.
So concenttate on small and closely controlled movements throughout the wrist curl exercise and
the wrist extension exercise.
You focus on the eccentric movement with a light weight (1 to 2 pounds / maybe more for the Diesel Universe) doing three sets of 15 repetitions, three times per day where you focus on the eccentric movement of wrist flexion (ME) or
wrist extension (LE).
I have been doing some forearm exercises on days between the full body sessions, particularly wrist curls 3 × 15 and
wrist extension 3 × 15.
For this type of push - up, you close your hands and put your weight on your knuckles instead of your palms, avoiding
the wrist extension motion.
