Carries are hand training

Walking with a loaded bag is one of the most transferable grip exercises there is, and it trains posture at the same time.

Glides, not stretches

Nerve and tendon gliding exercises move the tissue through its tunnel. They are slid gently to the first symptom, never stretched hard.

Dexterity is trainable

Fine hand skill declines with disuse and improves with deliberate practice at any age.

How to run it

  1. The wrist is loaded in four directions. Most programmes train two. This one trains all four.
  2. Three seconds down on every rep — the lowering is where tendon tolerance is built.
  3. Turning the palm up and down is a forearm job, and it is trained deliberately here.
  4. Ache in the muscle belly during a set is fine. Sharp pain on the bony point is not.
