I think I really damaged my finger joints when I was in my 20s... I was super super strong in weights, wrestling boxing etc.... I could submit men just by interlocking our fingers and squeezing my fingers sideways.... I used my hands to drive #16 nails through 2x6s etc.... Now at 83 I am paying for all of that.... My joints in my hands always hurt and have very little strength to hold onto things..... The reason I'm saying this is to dissuade any notions young men have of doing these crazy things I listed.... The exercises I did back then were similar in nature to what you demonstrated here and that was good, it's how I developed that strength but .... It was the stupid things I did with that strength I am paying for now....
This is awesome, so glad to see this video. I fell on my wrist January 21st and had slight fracture..I went to doctor this past Wed and its healed. I have been rewatching the video " 3 Stretches to Fix your Wrist Pain" since I found yall in February 17th...yayyy..I'm a subscriber now and you guys are smart funny and so glad I found yall. I will be doing these excercise and looking much of your products. Thank you and Stay blessed Bob and Brad
I'm an avid crocheter with arthritis in my fingers, so these will be very helpful to keep me going!! Thank you so much for your very informative videos!
Thanks guys , going to give it a go. I have lost a lot of grip strength due to 20+ years repetitive motion as a dental hygienist. I have thoracic outlet syndrome and bilateral radial tunnel syndrome. I need to do something!
I’m an avid reader so these exercises are great to do while I’m reading, or watching your videos! Thanks! Also, I used to make play dough with flour, salt, oil and Kool-Aid and manipulating it while it was still warm felt great to my hands.
Love you both, thank you for continuing to share great information with us on a regular basis. And Bob TY for continuing forward and being a great example for all of us struggling with physical challenges to continue doing what we love and staying as active and strong as we are able.
You two have helped so much within my recovery the last 7 years from a car accident, and continue to do gods work. ill be buying this equipment. Keep up the great work guys!
I used one of those spring grip things last year and had terrible problems afterwards, I was trying to develop grip strength but developed painful tenosynovitis. Warning - be really carefull about using them.
Thank you, am still getting physio for my broken wrist, this was just the reminder I needed, as I had stopped doing some of the original exercises given.
I fell and dislocated my finger broke my wrist and injured my shoulder. I had surgery on my wrist in February. I’m going to start physical therapy next week.
Hi Bob and Brad, I have benefitted greatly from some of your other videos thank you. I am worried by my quite marked loss of strength in both hands and will try these exercises. I'm a 65 year old nurse - still working in an acute hospital - but I'm struggling to open containers, push pills out of blister packs or disconnect IV lines. I hope it's just age related and not coming from some cervical spine issue.
I had some surgery on my hand due to skin cancer and it was right on the knuckle of my pointer finger, now that this has healed my finger is always very sore and hard to bend . I’m hoping that trying some of these exercises will help it to eventually stop being so stiff because I love to craft -making homemade cards and scrapbooking and notice every time I do this my finger gets very sore. Thanks for the great advice!
Perfect timing I'm just starting ot for this problem! Apparently my grip strength is 1/3 of what it should be....not good for someone who pipettes in a lab all day 😒
1000 and 1200 lb hand grips are available on the Internet. (Beginners accept, since it will save money on grips.) Please note to save some money as your grip strength increases to go on forever, on Amazon and Ebay there are 2 hand grip exercisers that one promotes 1000 lbs and the other 1200 lbs, using 6 springs that last forever and the grips easily allow to remove springs and 12 notch positions to find a poundage you feel comfortable with exercising with. The springs are held in place by 2 bar touching each other and if one slide to the side releases the springs. 1 spring in the highest notch position, will give a 200 lb workout and 2 springs in the highest positions is a 400 lb work out - good for one year's practice. The lowest position with one spring is from 50 to 70 lbs, approximate.
Both my wrist crackle and pop when I just move them in any direction so I’m wondering if I just need to work them out more to get some strength in my wrist. I’ll try out some of the exercises from this video and see if that works. Thanks again
I need to do the reverse grip stuff. I do CrossFit and I'm a housekeeper. My grip is crazy strong, (I can hang one handed for a long time) but my wrists hurt and I bet it's the opening muscles that need work.
Carpal tunnel both wrists , hands constantantly hurt. No therapy or surgery yet. Both arms nerve damage at the elbows also fore arm pain constant top nevere to forearm loses signal and finger tips right hand more loses sensation. Both hands last 2 fingers more common to loose feeling and give num. So what can I do to improve if possible. Please answer and thank you.
I wear a wrist widget for a TFCC tear in my wrist. While it helps with the pain, I would like something to help my wrist so I could kick the wrist widget to the curb and wear my watch again. X-rays showed nothing. Would the wrist extensions help or hurt? If it would help, do I keep the Widget on or off while do them?
I underwent surgery for cut tendons and muscle tissue just below the thumb. Now its all very stiff and can't get the upper joint to move. Could you suggest something ??
Does this help with hand tremors? I am very young, but have slight hand tremors. When I hold something I notice very slight tremors. Please reply. Thank you
i have a pinch nerve at C7 (MRI verified) - my whole right arm has been numb for over a year. Cant get anyone to help me. Is there anything i can do at home to try to release and get relief? So tired of HealthPartners pawning me off and not getting any help. Thanks
Wear wrist splint and avoid any repetitive activities that triggers it NSAIDS and try doing nerve glide for median nerve Do stretches Don't compress it while sleeping
Some of our astute followers have noticed me slurring my words. I am not drunk but working with Brad it would be justifiable. I had 6 infected cysts removed from my mouth (noncancerous) and I have residual scar tissue and numbness. I will try to do better. Thanks Bob.
@@BobandBrad That sounds painful and I hope you heal quickly. I told my vet my dog had very bad breath when she normally didn't. He found an abscess under her tongue. He had to drain it and stitch it up. She did very well in healing but I know a canker sore is very painful to me so can only imagine anything requiring surgery/stitching.
@@natureluvr_d7186 my older cat has some cysts in her mouth and loves her water plentiful, fresh and cold (I often provide distilled). My bud often complained her dog's breath was awful and didn't her dog need 9 rotten teeth removed!

NSAIDS and try doing nerve glide for median nerve
Do stretches
Don't compress it while sleeping

Perhaps only an old wives tale but old Harriet across the street would run her arthritic hands under warm water in the morn to help get them going...
Seemed more like an info commercial than an instructional video.
No offense. But is Bob ok ?
Yes, Bob is fine. He had infected cysts removed from his mouth which affect his speech. The description states this in every video also.
