Wrist flexion with a dumbbell is another exercise to strengthen your wrist muscles. Here's how to do it:
1. Sit on a chair or bench with your forearm resting on your thigh, palm facing up, and your wrist just beyond the edge of your knee.
2. Hold a dumbbell with your palm facing up, your thumb pointing upward, and your fingers wrapped around the dumbbell handle.
3. Slowly lower the dumbbell toward the floor by flexing your wrist, keeping your forearm still. This is the wrist flexion motion.
4. Lift the dumbbell back up as high as you comfortably can by extending your wrist.
5. Repeat this motion for the desired number of repetitions.
Just like with wrist extension, choose an appropriate dumbbell weight, and start with a lighter weight if you're new to this exercise. Proper form is crucial to avoid straining your wrist.
