Flexbar wrist extension
Intermediate10 repsNo jumping
How to do it
- Performed with a flexible resistance bar such as a Theraband FlexBar.
- Rest your forearm on your thigh or a table with the palm facing down and the wrist just past the edge.
- Hold the bar in that hand, let the wrist drop, then extend the wrist to raise the bar, keeping the forearm still.
- Lower slowly, taking about three seconds.
- The resistance comes from twisting or bending the flexible bar, so a thicker or stiffer bar increases the load.
- Commonly used for wrist and forearm strengthening and for elbow tendon rehabilitation.
