I also have bad muscle atrophy in my arm due to lack of use.. (it is hideous looking) lol.. This has not been addressed by Doctor or PT.. I was told not to use weights because of the nerve damage it would not help my arm strength. Was wondering if you agree with this.. Shoulder is impinging and working at home with a band..love watching the videos.. Was never shown most of these exercises for wrist... I know it is a slow recovery..

    When doing the "shortest" curl with thumb pointing up, as if I was holding a hammer but but it's the dumbell my wrist tend to crack in the bottom position. I had two pins inserted in my hand post surgery that were removed after healing. Other exercise make miniscule sound and will get better as they get stretched out and warm combined with better ROM.
    What should I do in regards to the first statement and if you don't understand me let me know so I can draw a clearer picture.
    Also I broke it about five years ago and just recently realized it's lacking in strength and mobility when doing pushups. It has healed well for not being ordered rehab exercises back then (was 14 so didn't care if I got any or not)
    Thanks

    question. I have struggled with forearm strain for over 10 years. I'm a golfer and guitar player. I've learned to stretch out all neck, shoulder, wrist, arm etc. My grip returned to me and has been ok. However, my forearms just wont come back. The symptom is the feeling of hitting exhausting of doing a weight exercise. I hit the fatigued feeling very quickly. My forearm condition runs the gamut of feeling normal to aching at rest. Good days, bad days. So ....lol...I am taking a shot at these exercise above. should I be doing them daily?
