Common mistakes

  • You wave from the fingers or elbows instead of rotating at the wrist itself.

  • You spin through fast little circles that never reach the end of the wrist's range.

  • You let the elbows drift and swing the whole arm, so the circles never isolate the wrist joint.

What to focus on

  • Take each circle to its full comfortable edge — you are preparing the wrists to hold load.

  • Keep the fists loose and the circles smooth in both directions so the forearms warm up without any strain.
