The wrist is a complex joint that bridges the forearm to the hand – a collection bones from the forearm (radius, ulna), 8 carpal bones, and 5 metacarpal bones, an articular disc (Triangular fibrocartilage complex or TFCC) and a plethora of ligaments. Then throw in muscles that all have very specific attachment points. Let&;s not forget about nerves arteries and veins. As you can see the wrist is a quite complicated. In the following weeks I will be posting 5 stretches and mobility exercises but if you have an ongoing issue this is not to replace a wrist assessment by a health professional! Work smart. Loose ligaments need muscular strengthening, tight muscles need stretching, weak muscles need strengthening, focus on each exercise to maximize your motor control and don&;t just go through the motions. practor series

Yesterday you wrote page one. With the new year brings new beginnings. I have never been a large proponent for new years resolutions as many simply make goals they should have accomplished in 2015, or 2014, or 2013.. They do not follow the few golden rules to goal setting. This year, make goals that follow the SMART principle: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relavent, Time bound. In addition to following the SMART principle, you should also:1. Set goals to motivate you.2. Create an action plan to map out how you will achieve your goals.3. Write them down. Better yet, comment/share this post with your goals for 2017.4. Stay true to your goals! It takes 6 weeks for your actions to become habits. Great things happen to those who set goals and crush.I&;ll share with you guys one of my goals:This year in climbing I intend to crush 5 v6&;s, 20 v5&;s and perform a single one arm pull up(OAPU). I have a specific training protocol I intend to follow to perform the OAPU and will adapted my warm up and climbing training to help me complete V6&;s as they are set at the hub. »
