7 Wrist Exercises and Stretches to Prevent Carpal Tunnel

Start with your right hand firmly gripping the dumbbell while keep your wrists parallel to the ground. Your forearms are flat against the bench. This time you will be making a small movement to the right.

You may not feel something right away but you will after a few reps (trust me). After 15 reps you will take the movement to the opposite direction (inward). Once you have improved your form, you can do the exercise with both hands at the same time.

As these exercises target small ligaments and joints, it’s important that this exercise be done slowly and deliberately to avoid any sudden jerks and impingements. Repeat this motion for 10-15 reps on each hand.
