Functional Preventative Stretch #2


Wrist Rotation
Avoid keeping your wrist in one position for prolonged periods of time. Break the pattern by taking multiple micro-breaks. Rotating your wrist will prevent wrist strains and sprains, improve flexibility, and increase productivity. REMEMBER, keep your elbows close to your body when you use your wrist.

Key Points:

1. Stand up straight.

2. Keep your elbows straight.

3. Rotate your wrist clock-wise, then counter clock-wise.

4. Continue for 5 seconds each way.

5. Repeat multiple times per day (Micro-Breaks)
