DO PLANKS & PUSH-UPS BOTHER YOUR WRISTS??
As I demo in this 30sec video, sometimes fixing your form is the solution, but sometimes the joint is just too inflamed and we need to modify while we give it some time to calm down. Either way, we can find a way!
Check your form:
Avoid letting all your weight settle into the heel of your palm; distribute it evenly across all 5 knuckles and fingertips
Make sure your shoulders are stacked over your wrists; if they lean forward too far you’ll bend your wrists backwards [ouch]..
How to modify:
If you’re able, do plank exercises on your forearms; orrr…
Hold your plank on your fists instead of flattened hands; orrr…
Grip the handles of DBs instead of putting your hands/fists on the floor
Again, you can see everything I listed above demonstrated in this short video! Send this to your workout buddy who’s always complaining about their wrists… or bookmark it if you are that workout buddy hahaha.
