Birds Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 One wrist or both? If both then likely grip position / technique If just one it sounds like underlying injury that gets aggravated by the movement.

-FIGJAM- Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Both wrists. I guess I go with and under grip on the bar just under shoulder width apart and try and keep a straight up and down movement Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/536/#findComment-7288893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
-FIGJAM- Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Would being double jointed in the wrist be a cause?? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/536/#findComment-7288894 Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Crust Racing Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I used overhand for that, no issues for me. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/536/#findComment-7288916 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bogan Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Do you warm up and mobility your wrist joints, I'm getting a little bit long in the tooth now and if I don't warm up everything I get pain everywhere, LOL And as we are coming into colder weather warm ups and mobility are even more important to keep injuries at bay.

No Crust Racing Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I find that too, at the ripe old age of 31.Kind of concerning in a way, part of me thinks if you don't use it you lose it, the other part thinks don't overdo it and wear out joints prematurely etc. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/536/#findComment-7290018 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 You guys may benefit from taking a week to two weeks off. Muscle I'm guessing heals quicker than cartilage and inflamed joints; you may feel a lot better after a decent break. I think it's good for the muscles too, to have an extended period of rest every now and then, particularly if you're lifting heavy most of the time. When I get sick and this forces me to stop gym for a week or two, I almost always come back stronger (eventually) after that annoyingly long period of making your way back. I'm pretty sure that's because everything has been well rested and properly healed. Probably a good idea to do mobility stretches in the second week too.

No Crust Racing Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I had 2 weeks holiday and only gym'ed 3 times in that period. Then after coming back, and getting sick, I had another full week off. The cold affects me much more in that regard these days. I'm on the comeback trail at the moment, Monday felt good but last night was really weak, though by the time I got into the gym room it was 8:45 so energy levels were not stellar lol That parenting life.

Birds Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Yeah I mean 2 weeks without gym...nothing, nada. And gorge on food. That's 14 days of solid recovery with the fuel to do it. You might come back a tad weaker but your body will love you for it! Of course there's nothing you can really do about old tired joints or degeneration Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200767-gym-and-supplement-discussion/page/536/#findComment-7290069 Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Crust Racing Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Go easy, I've only just upgraded to taking a full week off every 3mths or so.

TTT Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 underhand grip doing rows puts the wrists in a bent back position. and using a straight bar means they are bent back and twisted out. Then from there they get pulled upwards by the arms, and downwards by gravity. Use double overhand grip. either thumb under or over to see what works best.

No Crust Racing Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I think I get away with no wrist issues due to using bitch gloves that wrap around and support the wrist a little.
