I'm 55 and I have HORRIBLE finger and forearm spasms/cramps. I also have plantar fasciitis and terrible toe spasms/cramps. It "seems" I don't have them as bad when I eat salted, in-shell sunflower seeds (lots of them). I'll try it out.
Great exercises BUT need to view the black stretchy bands face on to the camera. And to emphasize the viewing either you guys should wear KHAKI pants for back ground contrast or use a bright color like yellow to contrast the stretchy bands against the black background of your pants.
Great video! Question about the Strengthener and any exercise band: since they are made of rubber and I'm assuming over time they may become dry due to low humidity during winter months, should you apply an oil or some kind of emollient to keep the bands from drying out? Thank you in advance for any answers you can give me.
I would love one of this ,never had a very strong wrist ,also where can I buy it from UK ,your videos with the bands have been very helpful,great job gentleman
I dislocated my middle and ring finger about 2 years ago. I am really proud that I can completely close my fist (a lot of different shape and density stress balls) and I rarely have any pain anymore . But, I would like to strengthen my fingers and wrists. Would this be a reasonable option for me?
I'm in a wheelchair and my left elbow is inflamed and has been hurting for several months. My orthopedic doctor says it's golfer's elbow. He put a steroid shot in it and it was a little better for a while but now the pain is back worse than before. I can't straighten it out or lift anything with it. Any suggestions?
Try Wim Hof breathing; it's just a breathing exercise that has been shown in studies to reduce inflammation (among many other things). He does have a course online, but he's also put all the info out there for free, so you can find many videos on it, included guided breathing. Here's how you do it - find a nice comfortable place to sit: 1) The breaths are done by inhaling as fully as possible, and when you exhale, you merely release your breath so your chest returns to its _neutral_ position (you do not push all your air out). Think of it as inhaling 100% and releasing ~50%. Do a few practice breaths to get a feel for it. 2) Do 30-40 of these breaths, or until you start to feel really tingly. You don't have to be dogmatic about any of this; they are just guidelines until you get a feel for it. I recommend a steady cadence, and you can go at whatever pace you like. 3) Once you've finished your breaths, _exhale and hold your breath_ . Do not inhale, this is an exhale-breath-hold. Now just relax, and allow yourself to feel whatever sensations you're experiencing. You will be completely fine, and the more calm you stay, the longer you'll be able to hold your breath. 4) When you can't hold the exhale-breath-hold anymore, take a deep breath and hold your breath again! This time you're doing an inhale-breath-hold, like normal. When you can't hold your breath anymore, you've completed 1 cycle! It's recommended you do 3 cycles; the more you do, the deeper you go, and the longer you can hold your breath. Give it a go, and see if it helps you. I hope it does.
Not a doctor, but tennis elbow is caused by tiny tears in the ligaments. Rest is the treatment, to give the injured tissue a chance to mend. When I have tennis elbow, the only thing that gets rid of it is complete rest of the afflicted arm for three straight days. I would think working an already stressed ligament would not be smart. Maybe wait until you're healed to try strengthening. HTH. ~ Lisa
I ordered the device through Amazon, and was disgusted at the $13.00 shipping cost to Anchorage. I’m a Prime member but that did not help. That is called “gouging” the customer.
Did you see an ortho doctor? I have trouble picking up over 40lbs in left hand. I'm a former weight lifter. I have no hand strength anymore. I think I have carpel tunnel.
@@rygarq2 nah, but I did see a chiropractor (which was a complete waste of time) It's usually golfer's/inner elbow that bothers me but lately my wrist hurts so bad I'm wearing a store bought splint... not sure what I did. I was making progress. I was taking supplements but ran out although not sure if that's the difference maker. Even though I had the wrist curl issue in the past I could still lift heavy and grip to an extent, I also could do reverse curls, and fingertip planks. Have you checked out a Theraband or Cando twist bar? that was the first exercise equipment that really worked for me.
yeah look into the twist bands and start off light. take vitamin b6 and wear a splint or brace. I work your extensor muscles some too but you probably already knew that. It's just the weirdest thing with me. I could wrist curl 25 lbs easy (which was probably a terrible idea) then went to not being able to curl 5 pound reps without grabbing the ice. here lately I think I just overdid something with my grip training.. or some other exercise I need to weed out
boys..... if you both talk at the same time.... it's not helpful.... or frustrating for those actually trying to hear every word you say. ...and at worst annoying.
I feel like I am watching this program on TVs and it's 1985. :)
I love it! Always informative and I like their conversation approach
Never underestimate a man who parts his hair down the center. Great job Bob.
Never a dull moment from you two , love Bob celebrating in the background 😂
God bless you both , thank you for all the useful information you share with us daily .
Another great video! I feel I could apply these exercise to strengthen my wrists and grip for Kali fighting.

Bob is the man!!!
Yes! You beat that young buck!
This is like a infomercial that plays at like 3 am
I use a wrist roller & it's the same concept but you tie weights to it.
Can you please make a video on overactive and underactive Muscle’s concerning the hip flexors thanks 🙏
Hip exercises please.
Dude Bobs a freakin beast man
Bob is strong like bull! I knew you were going to win. ~ Lisa
Coming through with the fancy schmancy titles and fonts! Well done
And that epic battle music
Thanks! Our new team member, Marcus, is the mastermind behind those!

No, these bands are the same as what commercial duty exercise bands are made of. They will be fine.
Thanks guys...

"... the real studmuffins out there..." 🤣
A wide grip handle adapter might give it an extra something something, changing it up once and a while
Can't get over Brad sounding like Norm MacDonald
Do you have any exercises to help with Dupuytrens contracture?
Hello there, search Bob and Brad Dupuytren's :)
Bravo, Bob! 🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭♥️♥️♥️
Good one Thank you I'd slip too 😂
Isn’t the bands more so for forearms rather than wrist and fingers ??
if you let them roll on your wrist and fingers well, you'd notice they work wonderfully for those as well.
Bob is stronger than his son!
Bob and braaad the two most famous phy-sickal therapy.....

Hope your at full strength. A lot of things on the market can help. Extensor bands. This product etc.

Stone 2 birds with 1 bush, just handwash your clothes.

Listen to this with your eyes closed and tell me Brad doesn't sound like Norm Macdonald
I didnt need to xD your comment alone made me hear that
I like doing pull ups with a towel or a gi..

I'm 6'2" 190 in good shape but 5 pound dumbbell wrist curls f with me. I don't do them anymore

I'm sure it works well it's just way too complicated. A simple 10 lb dumbbell will do the job. Eventually you'll get a 15 pound if you need it...
Wrist curls saved you ten minutes.

29? Lol she lied to him big time, hope it’s paying off
Why always the ppl who lecture on increasing muscles work out are having lean muscles ?
