How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Anchor a light resistance band near floor height and loop it securely around one wrist so it creates gentle traction away from the hand.
  2. 02Place that palm flat on a stable bench with the fingers pointing forward or slightly outward.
  3. 03Keep the elbow comfortably straight and shift your body forward slowly to increase wrist extension while the band maintains mild traction.
  4. 04Hold the pain-free position without bouncing, and stop immediately for sharp pain, tingling, or numbness in the hand or fingers.
  5. 05Shift your weight back before removing the hand and band, then repeat the same hold on the other wrist.
