In conjunction with CrossFit Golden Gate, I’m bringing a joint by joint Prehab series designed to improve the overall mobility and stability of the human athlete. Each video contains recommended prescriptions for each drill. To watch the entire catalogue in one place, I recommend the YouTube playlist.
In this part of the series we are working the wrist. Each part will include a mobility, stability, and/or a strength accessory drill.
Part 1 – Assess & Test
Test: Prayer Sign
Mobility: Extension Flossing
Stability: Finger Band
Part 2
Mobility – Banded Carpal Mobility
Stability – Eccentric DB Extension
Part 3
Mobility – Flexion Flossing
Stability – Eccentric DB Flexion
Part 4
Mobility – Controlled Articular Rotations (CARs)
Stability – DB Pronation & Supination
That’s it for the Wrist! Follow the guidelines in each video and you will definitely see improvement in this joint as well as the quality of your movement down the entire kinetic chain.
