I started doing these and my hands became much looser, more nimble, with an overall increase in comfort. With that said the first time I played my aim was terribly off because my hands felt so different. I gradually got my aim back over the session and by the middle of the session I was playing much better. It changed so much for me I contemplated sports medicine as my specialty to pursue (I'm a med student).
I've actually sent the video to two persons. One of them was my prof (I'm currently studying medicine) and the other one was the chief physician at one of the biggest hospitals here. They both absolutely agreed with you, and even showed me why it is good. Doing it since then and am capable of finding actual relief while gaming and even prior to writing big exams. Thank you!
I didn’t know I needed these exercises until I did them. I found Instant relief after just having gone through them once.. particularly in my wrists. I’ll definitely be incorporating these hand and eye exercises into my daily work routine. Thanks for posting such a helpful and thorough video
this is the best gamer warm up.., i've been doing it everyday since december 2020 and keep doing it now becomes my usual warm up before aim practice :) thank you esports healthcare :)
After playing Quake games which can be brutal on the wrists pretty much every day for 26 years (I'm 40 now) this has helped me a lot to keep playing. Thanks!
After casual gaming for over 25 years, out of nowhere I started getting agonizing and increasingly worsening pain in my primary hand. Over time it got bad enough that it was radiating right up my arm and shoulder. Even if I took a complete break from gaming for several weeks, it would quickly start up again when I next played. I've been using these warm-up and the corresponding warm-down exercises and although I'm still keeping my gaming time significantly reduced, I've not experienced any pain since I've been using these exercises even if I play for 2-4 hours straight. While I've got ongoing hand problems generally I'm so glad for these exercises, as gaming is an important hobby for me and I was pretty crushed at the idea of giving it up completely. Thanks so much!
BIG SUB ! Needed this years ago ! I started notice pain in my elbow recently, and i have very bad movement in my wrists... This is very much a neglected area in gaming that gives us decreased mobility and injuries, it´s very important i´d say as in any repetitive motion a proper warm-up is key to maintain injury free , big thanks for this channel, being a part of making gaming a healthier community
Outside of gaming, I do a lot of paperwork/labor work with my hands, these exercises have seriously improved my quality of life both on and off the controller, thanks for this 😄
this is fantastic and has helped me so much! i'm not a gamer, i work in a warehouse and have started a position that requires some dexterity i don't have yet. my hands were getting incredibly painful and numb at night after a couple of weeks. since one of the common symptoms of carpel tunnel syndrome is pain and loss of sensation overnight, i was doing exercises and stretches for that issue. i think i found your video on saturday and have done these stretches every day before and after work and it has made a TREMENDOUS difference! i slept without a wrist brace last night and didn't wake up with any pain or numbness. such a relief! your whole channel looks like a great resource for healthy hands.
Nothing is more frustrating than trying to do something while playing but your fingers feel ridiculously stiff and clumsy. Thanks for showing this routine!
Not only for gamers but for musicians too. I'm a professional guitar player and I'been playing since 13 (I'm 39 now) so I found this exercises very helpful. Thanks a lot!!!
This advice is very similar to what we're told to do in the Animation industry. If anyone's curious, there's a book called Draw Stronger - it has a lot of tips for people who spend time at their desk and use their hands a lot. It's catered to artists, but absolutely has uses beyond it. A lot of what's in this video is in that book! Thanks for putting this together. :)
Very good hand warm up / stretch set, the only one which actually warmed up my hands, and I've seen quite a few of these. Anyone reading this I'll let you in on my little secret for warm up to add to these, get a bucket, fill it with uncooked rice, put your hands in there, and open/close them for 1 minute.
I injured my hands from gaming, and I've been recovering from that lately. I've been using this anytime I need to just my hands for something, and also the cool down for the re-injury prevention. I'm excited to get back to gaming with these stretches in my pocket!!! ^~^
Okay, you guys. Where have you been? This is so life changing. I always thought why does my body hurt. Well Esports Healthcare has got my back. All this time I've been looking for an answer. Maybe it was an injury that my nerves don't feel right but no. ESPORTS HEALTHCARE. I AM ESPORT. I NEED TO TAKE CARE OF MY HEALTH. Idk but this is more appealing to me than basic RAILs exercices. Now I know what I did wrong my whole life to let my body be in ruins! Thank you doc
u save my fingers and tendons as a person with hypermobility i struggle with the bad postures my joints permit, and these has saved me from serious injuries kudos
Well, i thought it's a joke until i relize it really does help my hand loose a bit. XD damn, gonna try more to do this warm up thing. Keep the content guys!
So happy this review helped you! When we first decided to review G FUEL, we had similar expectations. Our automatic (and admittedly, unfair) assumption was that it would be full of unhealthy ingredients. We were pleasantly surprised at their formula, and so we wanted to support G FUEL for being a much cleaner alternative to the energy drinks that are packed with sugar and other harmful additives.
Started doing these exercises to increase CPS and reduce tightness in hands and wrist (which in turn improved my flicking) for valorant. Fantastic videos, I've noticed improvement in the first two days but notice more improvement in a week. Honestly, (as you probably know) you're onto something. I think these exercises (As you definitely know) are not only for esports but for Keyboard warriors, gun slingers, folks that sow and anything that has to do with hands. I also workout 6 days a week. This has massively increased my grip strength and mind body control for my upper body. I feel sore WAY less often. Which allows me to be more consistent on Valorant when I workout and my arms take a toll. My only question is when doing any of these exercises are you focusing on keeping your chest out and or keeping your shoulder blades down? As if you're bracing for some pushing exercise (like a bench press)? In the video the guy presenting the exercises already has really good posture. But that kind of posture has to be reinforced.
We always encourage core engagement and upright posture during any movement patterns, even the one shown here which wouldn't normally be a risk for the spine or any part of the trunk.
Nice video! I sometimes have a lot of pain in my hands specially my left hand (and more specifically my pinky and the one next to it) after long sessions of gaming! Hopefully I can get them better by doing these exercises! Thank you
Also, make sure you're not compressing your elbow on an arm rest. Check out: esportshealthcare.com/cubital-tunnel-syndrome -- as it includes symptoms in the pinky and ring finger, specifically
Just realized that the names of these exercises sound kinda like when anime characters name their attacks. Gonna yell them from now on when I do them: "Opposition Finger Tap, FLEXED!", "Fiiiiiiiiinger... CIRCLES!!!".
Thank you very much, I found other exercises to be inadequate, as they didn't appear to address the fingers as much as the wrist. I will definitely consider dropping a sub.
We're very happy you like this routine! Our goal was to move every joint and muscle from the fingers to the forearms which means a lot of finger movement--anything less is ignoring a major component of gaming
@@EsportsHealthcare Thank you so much! I used to not be able to do the scout salute on one of my hands from years of gaming, but now my ring finger stands up perfectly straight only after doing the routine once! You've earned a sub!
@@EsportsHealthcare np you should’ve seen how hard the finger circles were on all my fingers eXcept thumb I definitely gotta improve and loosen the muscles also would u recommend cracking bones before gaming or na ex fingers and neck
@@supersop1367 those finger circles can be infuriating 😅 If you choose to self-adjust (officially, we don't recommend it, for legal purposes), it can be done before, during, and/or after. The release of the joint(s) shouldn't have a negative effect on any part of your gaming. Just be careful.
dude wait up. i already thought this was a really good warmup and i was using it everyday before my gaming sessions and getting great results. BUT at first i used to hear some cracking of my left wrist when i started doing this straight from being cold, and now that sound literally disappeared !!!!!!!! so this excercise might be healing my wrist joint lul
so weird. after doing this warmup i felt an immediate difference in my mouse movement, almost as if my sensitivity became higher lol. feels a lot easier to move my mouse
Is it fine to do these stretches every day? And when would be the best time to do them? I do a lot of computer stuff aside from just playing games, so I would save it for before I do something more intense or just right before I get on the computer? Would I do these (and the cool down stretches) multiple times a day if I had sizable breaks between these session or no?
Warm-up is low impact movement-daily shouldn’t be an issue unless you’re getting overly fatigued. For the other video, the stretches, we generally suggest once per day when you’re done with everything.
Thank you so much for this video. I have been using these stretches for a couple of months now and I’m happy to say my hands and fingers feel great while gaming, as well as after (thanks to your cool-down stretches) 👍
Regarding the eye H-pattern exercise, is the goal to keep the small object in view of both eyes? Or is it fine to bring the object in such a position that the other eye's view of it is blocked by my nostril or forehead?
The warm-up movements you can do every day and even between games… for the stretch video, those should be reserved for when you’ve finished a gaming session. With stretching, you can also do it every day, but there is some research that shows it can reduce your performance if done too close to the beginning of physical activity.
@@EsportsHealthcare So I better understand, I should do the warmup not too soon before I start playing? And if I’m playing at different times throughout the day, at what point should I do the cool down stretches?
@@jim5039 warm up you can do as often as you want as long as you’re not fatiguing - we recommend before gaming and using the exercise patterns anytime during where your hands/wrists feel stiff The stretches you can do after you’re done, and if you do the stretches for 20-30 seconds each with mild intensity, just make sure you have some time between the stretches and gaming (e.g., an hour is more than enough time if you play more than once)
I... Don't know quite how to thank you. Ever since I began using my Steam Deck I have had quite a bit of pain in my thumb/wrist that I thought was dequervians syndrome. I did this exercise and the pain seems like..... Gone. I'm going to keep practicing it to strengthen the muscles/joints. I thought I was going to have to sell my Steam Deck. Thank you!
This is hands down the best gamer-warmup out there.
I appreciate you
Pun intended ??
@@kanisfn3758 It was not intended... l but I def caught it after the post lol
hahaha
I felt like a pro gamer doing those moves!
First exercise I've seen in decades where the trainer actually completes them :D
I started doing these and my hands became much looser, more nimble, with an overall increase in comfort.

How did you injure your hands from playing

the amount of times my hands cracked when doing these
