    I'm almost 27 years old, been in countless fitness classes, every time I told an instructor "I can't do push ups my wrists can't bend that far back" they'd just tell me to do a plank and wait out the push ups part. I have been waiting for this video my ENTIRE LIFE, thank you so so much

    After a few years of inactivity and a sedentary lifestyle, I was very surprised when I could no longer do the basic pushups that came easy before. This definitely helped with the pain, hopefully doing this daily will strenghten my wrists so I can keep going

But now through your watching and learning from you clear well thought out videos, you are helping me and my team to better fitness. This translates to better athletes and better swimming results. THANKS!!!

You've given ways to still do the movements while not causing further injury as well as ways to hopefully correct it. Thank you so much for addressing this in this manner!!

    I love your understanding of kinesiology. In college (as a pre-med major) in the 70’s I took kinesiology courses to improve my understanding. These stretches for the wrist and the types of push-ups you describe are things I studied. We did A LOT of pushup in martial arts and often used these modifications (especially the knuckle push ups). You have great videos and provide a great service. I am now 69 years old and am using your videos to get my core back in shape (especially during this COVID crisis0). Thank you very much. I do have one problem that maybe you could help on in a later video. My ankles are fairly stiff and make it difficult to sit back on my heels during yoga or what the call seiza position. Can you do a video on exercises to stretch and strengthen ankles?

    THIS I will rewatch a couple times. I was doing planks yesterday and I remember thinking how my wrists are weak. I needed to figure out what I am doing wrong. Proper form is everything. OT: I was in the weight room when a guy was lifting 30 lbs dumbbells. Then he came over to me to complain how he had injured his wrist prior and how his wrist was in great pain. I asked him why would he lift heavy weights or at all, until his wrist got better. He shrugged. I won’t exacerbate an injury. But I do notice when I am reticent about doing an exercise, it is because I know in my head, there has to be a better way. Thanks so much‼️

    • @redefiningstrengthOC
      @redefiningstrengthOC  4 года назад +3

      So glad it helps! So I actually go a little more into planks specifically in the article I wrote to go with it - redefiningstrength.com/wrist-pain-with-push-ups-these-tips-and-exercises-will-help/ It's key we do figure out ways to work around as we build up. Sometimes it is simply CUEING a move differently, sometimes it is adjusting the variation used. But it's key we don't get stuck on the "best" move and instead focus on our needs and goals!

    I’ve been meaning to ask this question in the Facebook group; I’m super glad this video came up in my feed. I notice when doing push-ups or even plank positions with my palms on the ground, that my right arm and shoulder slightly tilt back while my left arm does most of the work. I’ve been trying my hardest to catch myself and fix the posture but I just don’t have the strength or ability in my right wrist to hold myself up for any length of time. I sometimes do push-ups in neutral positions or any exercise that requires me to put weight on my right wrist. I didn’t think this would be considered proper form so I’m really happy to see that I’m still getting the benefits of the exercise even if I’m using my fist to anchor myself. I’m gonna work on some of the stretches and exercise mentioned in the video! I’m 40 now and my body just doesn’t work as it used to. I watched a video on lower back pain and realized I wasn’t strong enough in my core and glut area for most of the exercises I was doing. Working through your program and doing some of the extra stuff you mentioned in the video on lower back pain has transformed me. I can tell I’m getting stronger and the pain is completely gone. I am so excited for the possibility of being wrist pain free. Thank you for Your videos and the helpful information you share with us.
