Purpose:

Reduce tension and pain through the forearm and wrist. Helps improve range of motion and flexion through wrist and arm.

Where to Feel it:

In the front/top of your forearm (extensors).

Description:

Lightly press with one hand into the other in a downwards direction until feeling a slight stretch, that is comfortable with no pain. To further stretch & relax the muscle, push the “stretching hand" upwards into the “opposite hand" for 3-5 seconds while breathing in. The opposite hand should resist the upward pressure of the stretching hand, and prevent it from actually moving. Then relax, breathe out, and allow the stretching hand to relax and stretch a bit further down.

Reps:

3-5.
