Hi everyone, Can tell me how or the methods to increase wrist or hand power? Other than taking dumb-bells and going to gym. ceng
For forearm strength and arm training, try the following combination of exercises: gyro ball thera-band bars grip master tennis ball baddie training racquet with mesh cover on rubber band
Re Hi, thanks. u mean must combine all or any one will do? Can u help to explain briefly how to use for each method? Ceng
most of the above methods have been covered ad nauseum in the forum. a simple search will yield lots of very useful information.
Training Best way is to swing a racket with the frame cover. Make sure your stroking is correct. Get spare money, buy a squash racket to swing. cheers
Er... you might wanna make that you're not using your regular racquet cuz shaft stiffness weakens over time. Your med stiff racquet might become super flexy after awhile.
You should try a variety of exercises. As Kwun said you will find more information by doing a search. The exercises I suggested are only a small part of a holistic training program. You should do strength, flexibility and cardio training. Pay particular attention to REAPER's Strength Training With HK Team Report.
Super!!! Really works!!!! My son and his buddies spent a lot of time to use covered frame practicing diff stroke. Smash become more powerful after a while and the birds can fly to the deep deep bottom line after trained. (p.s. remember to train the "passive" hand, or 1 big 1 small as a result ) Excellent suggestion.
Light racquets with half cover ( from franke to cone) produce the best result. Lighter racquets like 3U or 4U weight have less momentum and thus the swinger has to use more force to overcome air resistance.
wine bottle i hold a wine bottle (filled or half-filled it with water to increase its weight) by the neck and swing (stress on the pronation and supination of your forearm) it like a racket. it improved my arm strength as well as my grip.
Do your recycling Take your old newspapers, hold a couple of sheets at arms length, and crumple this will help improve finger strength. repeat, repeat...
i dunno what its called so ill just call it tension grips, it looks kinda like pliers and they can strengthen your hands and fingers very easily, may even help with the forearms.
Rubber bands Some of the suggested exercisers will achieve similar results. Squeezing a tennis ball (an older/soft one might be best) may work the same tendons & muscles as a grip master, but I'm sure that it will work them somewhat differently. Those engaged in strength development (& also bodybuilding) are encouraged to vary theiir routines to work their muscles differently to achieve greater results. Not sure if the rubber band idea has been covered elsewhere but I will pass on to you what was suggested by a physical therapist for recovery from epicondylitis (aka tendinitis). The rubber band is worn aournd the wrist so that it will always be available to use for exercising the forearm muscles and tendons associated with the hand & forearm. Slip the rubber band from your wrist down around your fingertips (close to your fingernails would be OK). Slowly stretch your fingers (against the resistance of the rubber band). Perform numerous repetitions each time (& multiple times thru-out the day).
