I would love it if you watched this entire video as it really helps the channel, but I get that these types of videos are referenced multiple times after your first watch. So here are the timestamps for each stretch! Make sure to let me know what you found helpful, and what you’d like to see in the future! How long/often/pain: 1:37 Thumb Four Way: 2:20 Thumb Opposition: 2:58 Wrist Four Way: 3:55 Prayer Stretch: 4:37 Forearm Rotation: 5:07

A lot of pro gamers have done videos like this. Drift0r and Day[9] come to mind. But you're an expert. Another thing those people have talked about is getting a really good chair to sit in. Drift0r suggested Herman Miller, which are really expensive chairs. Would love to hear your input on gaming chairs. What's worth it, what isn't, and what's the best?

Great video with great tips for healthy hands. I have been a PC gamer for almost my entire life (I started at 6 years old in 1989) and i never had any kind of handpain or backpain. (I am athletically build and enjoy working out besides gaming) Funny thing though ... I do most of the exercises you showed without ever having learned them, except the thumb opposition and the part of the wrist four way where you put your arm on the table. They somehow came naturally to me because they feel good. I have more of problem with my fingers when i practice guitar. My left hands fingers kinda cramp up. Is there something similar i could do to help with that issue? I played a lot of keyboard (the music instrument) when i was a kid but guitar chords are an entirely different beast.

I know this is an old video, but with the recent severe carpal tunnel I've developed, instead of surgery they have me in a sling for a few weeks. The thumb stretches had me laughing because I've only got one thumb, so it took me to get down to my middle finger for me to reach the nub. Unfortunately for me, a lot of this started from overextending my pinky and ring finger on that hand, causing was began as a massive strain, and 4 months later turned into unbearable pain. Just the few stretches from here, and my left hand feels better than it did before the video. Gonna definitely bookmark this in hopes that doing this daily will help with my healing faster.
