STOP using a hammer to stretch your forearm into supination or pronation. Hammer rotations are a very common exercise that is recommended to increase forearm range of motion. The problem is that the exercise is more advance but is often advised in the early stages of injury recovery.
If your forearm is very stiff, the hammer will cause more strain and pain to your wrist, and fingers, with little improvement to your supination range of motion.
Luckily, in this video, Michelle will demonstrate what to do instead. One of the more effective and less painful solutions to increase your forearm supination, or pronation, is to perform a passive supination towel stretch.
Using a towel, reduces the strain on your wrist and works by applying an even force throughout the entire forearm. Unlike the hammer rotation that only works on the wrist.
Try it out for yourself and comment below. Let me, and others, know how this stretch felt for you!
