7 Wrist Exercises and Stretches to Prevent Carpal Tunnel

Grab your dumbbells, place the back of your forearms flat on the bench and let your wrist hang over. Take the weight in your hand, lightly gripping it with all 5 fingers (it’s okay if it moves slightly in your hand).

Curl your wrist up as far as it can go naturally, then bring it back down slowly. Do not hyperextend the movement; your motion should be comfortable.

Repeat this motion for 10-15 reps on each hand. Of course, if you are just starting out, you may find this challenging, so pace yourself.
