Wrist Circles


Step 1 - Extend both arms forward at shoulder height

Step 2 - Make slow circles with your wrists, keeping your arms still

Step 3 - Complete 8 circles in one direction, then reverse

Step 4 - Focus on moving only your wrists, not your entire arms

Recommended Sets & Time:

  • Beginner: 2 sets of 8 circles each direction, 10 seconds rest

  • Intermediate: 2-3 sets of 10 circles each direction, 10 seconds rest

  • Advanced: 3 sets of 12 circles each direction, 10 seconds rest

What to Focus On:

  • Wrist mobility - You should feel your wrist joints loosening up with each circle

  • Isolated movement - Only your wrists should move; keep your arms steady

  • Full range motion - Make the circles as large as your wrists comfortably allow

  • Preparation focus - This prepares your wrists for push-ups and planks

Modifications:

  • Easier: Make smaller circles or do them one wrist at a time

    Harder: Make larger circles or add gentle resistance by making fists
