Wrist and Finger Stretch
Long hours of typing can lead to wrist and finger stiffness. Routinely stretching can help keep these areas flexible.
How to do it:
Extend your right arm in front of you with your palm facing up.
Use your left hand to gently pull back on your fingers, stretching your wrist.
Hold for 15-30 seconds, then switch hands.
Additionally, stretch your fingers by spreading them wide and then forming a fist.
Alternative: Another stretch for the wrist is going on all fours with hands directly under the shoulders and knees directly under the hips. Gently move the body back by trying to sit on feet until stretch is felt in the wrist and hold for duration.
Benefits: These mobility exercises improve flexibility in the wrists and fingers, helping to prevent repetitive strain injuries.
