TOP Wrist Stretches for Guitar Players & Musicians

[@herkula2755]

Even though I'm very busy in life.. but every time I watch you in your teachings. I always learn something from you. The time will come, even if I'm not good at playing the guitar. I can play anyway. Thank you very much..😊

[@LaurenBateman]

Thank you for your kind words. I'm very glad to help!

I do the Praying hands exercise. It really helps a lot. These are great exercises! Thanks so much,Lauren😊👍👍

[@LaurenBateman]

You're so welcome!

Thank you, these are some great exercises and they are really helpful. I’ve been playing bass for over 50 years and I am still playing out a lot, 2 or 3 sets a night. I have been experiencing stiffness in my fingers and when it happens while I am playing, it can be a little scary. I find that being aware of your breathing can also be helpful.

[@LaurenBateman]

Glad you like them!

Always welcome

I study classical guitar and all of these work great for that too. Many of them I learned in my martial art days. Wrist and finger flexibility is so important and stretching is too often overlooked, especially by beginners.

[@LaurenBateman]

Yeah, I'm big on martial arts too. Did Kenpo for many years.

@@LaurenBateman nice. Iaido for me with a little Aikido tossed in (pun not intended)

How timely that you come out with this video. I've been experiencing cramps and stiffness in my chord hand, especially when playing Barr chords. I was wondering what exercises I might do to relieve this. Another that I've been doing is: putting my fingers together (intertwining), bringing into the chest area, then slightly tightening, and then pulling apart. This about 20 times. It pulls on the fingers and gets blood flow to the hand and fingers. Thanks for your tips! I have one of those little squeezing tools! Works great!

[@LaurenBateman]

Glad it helped! Thank you so much for watching.

Awesome advice. I also bend each finger towards me one at a time palm facing out arm locked. Really helps get the finger limber for your fret hand:-)

[@LaurenBateman]

Another great addition. Thank you, Kirk.

Hey Lauren, thanks for the workout for my hands and arms. Several aren't what I'm currently doing and will see how it goes. I also do a computer touch typing course which frees me up a bit
