Try to practice at least 3 exercises that you have learned from the lesson. Share images, gifs or videos while practicing preferably gifs or videos.

Wrist Rotations

I want to share my experience with a simple yet incredibly effective exercise that can easily slip under the radar: wrist rotations. If you’ve ever found yourself suffering from wrist pain or stiffness—whether from typing away at a keyboard, playing sports, or just going about your daily routine—this exercise might just be the secret weapon you need.

Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:

Step 1: Find Your Space

I made sure to find a comfortable spot where I wouldn’t be distracted—maybe on the floor or sitting on my couch with my arms resting on my knees. It’s important to feel relaxed!

Step 2: Get Into Position

With my arms relaxed by my sides and palms facing up, I began to lift one arm at a time. This made it easier to focus on each wrist individually.

Step 3: Start Rotating

I started slowly rotating my wrists clockwise for about 10-15 seconds. Then, I switched directions and went counterclockwise for another 10-15 seconds. Honestly? It felt amazing! The gentle movement helped ease the tension that had built up from those long hours at the keyboard.

Step 4: Repeat!

After completing two sets on each wrist (that’s four sets total), I could already feel the difference! My wrists were more flexible, and they didn’t feel as stiff as they usually did after extended periods of typing or gaming.

Arm Prayer Stretch

I also want to share a little story about my experience with the Arm Prayer Stretch exercise.

Here’s how I did it:

Step 1 Find Your Space:

I found a quiet corner in my living room where I could stretch without interruptions.

Step 2 Get Into Position:

Standing tall (or sitting comfortably) with my feet shoulder-width apart, I brought my palms together in front of my chest as if in prayer.

Step 3 Lift and Breathe:

Then came the magic part—I slowly raised my hands above my head while keeping my palms pressed together. As I lifted, I took deep breaths in and out. It felt like letting go of all the stress accumulated throughout the day!

Step 4Hold and Enjoy:

Finally, I held this position for about 30 seconds while focusing on relaxing my shoulders away from my ears—talk about bliss!

Median Nerve Glides

Again, I want to share my personal experience with a simple yet effective exercise that has made a significant difference in the day: the median nerve glides.

Here’s how I did it:

Step 1 Wrist Extension Glide:

Start by extending your arm in front of you with your palm facing up. Gently bend your wrist back while keeping your fingers straight. Hold this position for about 5 seconds and then relax.

Step 4 Wrist Flexion Glide:

Now, flip your palm to face down and bend your wrist forward while keeping your fingers straight again. Hold for 5 seconds before relaxing.

Step 4 Elbow Flexion Glide:

With your arm extended out in front of you again, bend your elbow while keeping your wrist straight (this one feels great!). Hold for 5 seconds.

Step 4 Full Movement Sequence:

Combine all three movements into one fluid motion! Start from the first position, glide through each movement smoothly, and repeat several times.

Share your review after performing these exercises either on yourself, healthy individual or patient.

I have tried all the exercises you have mentioned to improve my health without being patient. I am already doing some of the exercises regularly. I have gotten good results from it, especially the stretch prayer exercise, which I am doing regularly every day. Through it, I have reduced the unnecessary fats in my shoulders, back, chest, and breast parst and have become strong and toned. Also, by doing exercises like wrist rotation and wrist stretch, my hands get stronger. At the same time, I am not in pain.

After incorporating wrist rotations into my daily routine—a quick session takes less than five minutes—I’ve noticed some pretty awesome benefits:

1. Reduced Pain: My wrists feel significantly less painful after long sessions at the computer.
2. Increased Flexibility: The range of motion in my wrists has improved, making activities like lifting weights or playing sports feel smoother.
3. Better Posture: Engaging in these small movements has made me more aware of how I'm holding myself throughout the day.

Since incorporating the Arm Prayer Stretch into my daily routine, I've noticed some fantastic benefits:

• Improved Flexibility: My shoulder flexibility has noticeably improved. Activities like reaching for things on high shelves are much easier now!

• Reduced Tension: This stretch really helps release tension built up from sitting at a desk all day or hunching over my phone.

• Better Posture: With regular practice, I've become more aware of my posture throughout the day—sitting up straighter and feeling more confident!

I would like to invite
