Wrists of Steel || Training with & avoiding wrist injury || Handstand and calisthenics

[@jordanthornton]

Consistent stress progressions over time are key, for sure! Seven years ago I was 'diagnosed' with a rare form of arthritis at only 18 (which meant not only should I be 'careful', but that I was at risk for dislocations and other injuries) Thought that avoiding impacts for life sounded lame, so I progressively trained a mixture of gymnastics and olympic lifting movements for the next three years to purposefully strengthen my wrists and ankles at high impact... not only have I never dislocated, I have great joint strength and mobility! (I also warm up my wrists and ankles before every single workout, no matter what I'm doing, so that surely helps - thanks for all the extra tips, Sondre!)

[@Sondre_Berg]

That’s a great mentality man! I am happy you are able to manage your arthritis though strength work :) keep up the good work brother

[@jordanthornton]

Arthritis - what arthritis? Out training genetic determinism, now that's next level gains, hahha!

[@IsaPilapil]

The way you emphasized flexibility along with increasing the range of motion resolved the mild but annoying wrist pain I was dealing with for the last 2 months! Cheers!

[@okangokkaya4443]

Ur one of the most greatest human being. Thanks

[@Izik8890]

Thank you very much! I have joint hypermobility and that puts me at risk of injuries and dislocations. Ever since I started strength training I have significantly less pain and injuries. I had both of my knees operated fairly recently so now I am training handstands to stay strong. Your videos are very helpful 💪

[@andreafiaschi5904]

Thanks man, this is really helpful, especially for beginners like me that risk to get seriously injured without even knowing.

[@capitaleyes3168]

Youre the best in the game man. So much knowledge and talent. Glad to know some of the wrist exercises were good for strengthening and you really made sense of why changing grips and balancing on difference surfaces effected the wrist.

[@mr.broccoliwarrior9303]

Thank you man!!! This is something I need so much!!! Thank you especially for the tips how to train with the injury effectively. I think this point is often neglected.

[@60SecondCalisthenics]

Very helpful info Sondre. I am relatively new to static and freestyle calisthenics. Thanks for your video. I've heard the stories and have been training with wrist supports from the beginning. I've also been doing wrist exercises like the ones in your video to strengthen my wrists. Appreciate you. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@Sondre_Berg]

Glad you liked it😊 I would actually refrain from using wrist straps unless absolutely necessary. You will become dependent on them.

[@mrdeneanon9519]

Shattered all the bones in my wrist which turned to 'dust' the doctor said so could not fixate. 13 months in and bones helped but not great so this info is going to be put to work. I have limited range and cannot supinate to palm up but can tolerate push ups with moderate pain. Great info.

[@jotarokujo8575]

The same happened to me but the I got surgery almost 2 years later than the date of the injury. Still working on the ROM, I got a lot better so you will do too ❤

[@jentzenmehl1440]

Thank you Sondre. I have multiple wrist injuries from being a goalie in soccer. Your wrist flexibility exercises are awesome!

[@RiverReeves23]

Honestly, the most helpful video I've seen in my life. Thanks.

[@maxnowak1969]

Thanks a lot Champ ! I currently face some troubles with my wrists and im unable de train without wrist wraps. This video helps me a lot 🔥🔥🔥

[@Sondre_Berg]

I’m glad it could help you :)

[@eruston]

We used to do a simple yet difficult wrist/forearm exercise: take a short stick that is relatively thick, drill a hole through the center and put a length of rope through the hole with a knot at one end to keep it from going all the way through, then tie the loose end of the rope to whatever size weight you want to use, now hold the stick out in front of you, supinated or pronated grip, and practice rolling the stick to wrap the rope around it and eventually bring the weight up to the stick. Try a good enough weight and feel the burn!

[@Okiewife81]

Thank you so much for this video. I've been trying for years to get some tips on how to strengthen my wrists.

[@SanderHeieren]

This was an amazing video, Sondre! Du fortjener så mange flere følgere her på KZbin! Keep it up :D

[@ExTrimerAL]

Could you make a video about bulletproof shoulders? How to strengthening and stabilize shoulder joint?

[@Sondre_Berg]

I’ll add it to the list of future videos :)

[@mandeepsaharan9245]

awesome explanation👌👌👌👌👍, but one complete blog on parallettes handstand, that is demand ......

[@elvisohult]

Me : tries doing handstand at the gym Wrists : I’m about to end this mans whole career

[@DiscipleSteven]

These are great and I will incorporate some of these into my regular routines during the week! I don't do handstands but probably could if I tried - mostly due to balance issues. lol Anyway, I have found that I normally hurt my wrist doing dumb stuff and not something very strenuous. I found some other exercises and stretches as well which have always helped in the past.

[@monsieurtoutlemonde3476]

Really impressive ! I don't understand how that is possible !

[@pedrobarboza3817]

[@Sondre_Berg]

You’re welcome :)

[@ismaaa5800]

Can i ask? How many sets and reps should i do for the 3 wrist push ups you showed I wanna strengthen my wrist before i go to your handstand tutorial.

[@Anne-cv4ms]

Very useful. thank you !!

[@morphine219]

Thanks bro 🙌

[@no_idea_4_id553]

Thank you)

[@RajuGhosh-qx1go]

Brother thanks I'm Raju from India ❤️

[@valen5188]

When do you train your wrists? Should I do it before or after I work on my handstands/other push day exercises?

[@janets203]

I always do it before I train handstands, I don't get any injuries if I do this.

[@LiamEllis]

you're the best man

[@jasonbauer9712]

Great video 👍

[@user-em2mf6kv3l]

Thank you a lot! But I still have a question. Should I still work on my mobility while having pain or just reduce the stress?

[@Sondre_Berg]

You should definitely work it, but reduce the pressure big time. So only put so much load on it so it doesn’t hurt more after your workout than it did before. Then gradually increase load

[@ant7936]

Good, sound advice. Thanks.

[@sophiewieser3694]

around 6:45hahah "reading all the points the told me I should mention" hahah

[@L5biszz]

Nice thx

[@joshuadimercurio2193]

What do you do for your thumbs? Should I just copy the same format you do for the wrist exercises but for my thumbs? Seemed like when I balled my hands into a fist but with my thumb underneath my fingers and put my closed fists down with the thumbside facing down, it had a really nice stretch.

[@jamiejones4036]

3:30 do you recommend training all 3 of the exercises?

[@Davez2023]

Hi my elbows are hurting when i do pushups. I have pushed my self quite a bit in my first 2 weeks. I heard about elboy sleeves to help this pain by giving me more support. Would you recommend elbow sleeves for calisthenics?

[@ericchan8194]

can you do one arm handstand push ups now? i know you ve training for many years your uneven handstand push ups is very in a good condidtion so i am curious about your progress

[@backflipbaris7658]

Could you make a video about planche please 😍

[@Sondre_Berg]

I’ll definitely do that in the near future:)

[@scoobtoober2975]

Who are you and where have you been. Did you climb with magnus? I see you have and i did watch his video. I should have watched yours.

[@adamreynolds6701]

Brother each and every step was very helpful.... Pls do something to increase the voice in video

[@Sondre_Berg]

You could try and turn the volume up😜 I don’t have any issue with the volume. Or did you mean something else?

[@adamreynolds6701]

@@Sondre_Berg Yes actually the device volume was full.... That aside u r awesome😘

[@강재민-z7c]

Is it okay to do some pulling exercises with a wrist injury?

[@ingazujeva7325]

Here watching back from tictok

[@Sondre_Berg]

Happy to see you here 😊 hope the video was helpful

[@sametemn]

Greattt thank youu!

[@edgefinesse4700]

Do you feel the supinated grip works biceps

[@quazzacroldacct940]

I want to do bmxing as well as calisthenics but I'm scared I will never do calisthenics again if I crash and break my wrist. Will this help to make my wrist cope from big impacts as well as wrist guards

[@berseker3139]

Should i stretch it even tho it hurts alot?

[@climbingac4135]

👍👍

[@omfgSHORYUKEN]

can you get wrist pain from using paralettes and pull up bars or is it mainly from having your hands flexing on the floor?

[@Sondre_Berg]

Using only parallets can be as hard for the wrists as floor, only in a different way

[@inofen]

Elbow injury next?

[@Sondre_Berg]

Sure :)

[@alicangir4637]

Hey good video, i have had my wrist injury for over a month now, i got it from weighted dips, i have full mobility in my wrists and i have been doing all these movements and exercises but i have had no improvement to the injury, what can i do? Its really starting to bother me as it affects my daily life, i feel pain if i lift something or if i turn it in a certain way

[@loesiewerkman]

Did you ever recover or find a way to live with it?
