hey coach a few weeks back when i first started doing the tuck planche part of the progression, I damaged my wrist doing the hold no my living room floor. after that I switched to doing them only on pushup bars, and now thats its been a few weeks my wrist is basically back to normal again, but when i was arm wrestling my dad i felt some of the pain come back. I was wondering if you had any good drills for healing this sort of thing (which i presume has happened before?). Thanks.

1. go to push up position un push with your palms up to your fingers(turn your hands in all positions)

2. terraband rehabilitation

3. put some weight on rope then wrap it around on a bar

4. flexability work

Thank you both for the awesome info, i'll definately have to start applying some of it to my workouts. My wrist actualy doesnt hurt or anything now, but i was a little annoyed that it started again slightly when i was arm wrestling dad. if i do those wall handstands will that help in healing my wrists? thanks again for the advice guys.
