Wrist health determines your ability to type, write, grip, and push. Modern work creates predictable restrictions: limited extension from typing, reduced rotation from mouse use, and general stiffness from fixed positioning. This routine addresses all wrist movements systematically. Unlike larger joints, wrists respond quickly to mobility work. Consistent practice produces noticeable improvements within two weeks. The exercises here target each wrist movement pattern.
