Eccentric Wrist & Finger Curl
Exercise Overview
This is a strengthening exercise for the wrist and finger flexors. Start by placing the back of your forearm on a stable bench, chair or table with the wrist hanging off of the table. Hold a weight with your hand and curl your wrist by flexing it upwards. Slowly lower the weight down towards the floor by extending the wrist at a 5 second tempo. Allow the weight to roll down to a hook grip position with your fingers. You may use your free hand to assist the other hand to raise the weight all the way up. Repeat as required.
