All about the elbow!

It’s all about the elbow today.

This is a joint that generally stays healthy and strong through our use of the hands.

However when we damage the elbow it is then that we realise just how much we use and need the elbow. It connects the between the hand and the shoulder.

The more flexible the wrists and forearms are. The stronger and more resilient the elbow is to injury.

Today I’m going to give you some simple yet very effective exercises for elbow health.

They can all be done loaded or unloaded depending on the severity of your elbow pain.

And here they are

1. Wrist flexion/extension supported by your free hand

2. Lateral flexion/extension

3. Wrist circles hand open/ holding a fist

4. Finger curls

5. Wrist Curls
