BeginnerWarm-upWarm-up
Wrist Circles
Simple wrist circles are a mobility warm-up for the wrist joint itself — not a strength exercise, but a quick way to check and improve range of motion before loading the wrist with curls, pronation work, or holds.
Muscles Worked
Wrist joint (all muscles)
Equipment
No equipment
How to Do It
- 1Make a fist or keep hand open
- 2Rotate wrist in circles
- 3Perform both clockwise and counter-clockwise
Sets & Reps
2 sets · 15-20 each direction
Coaching Tips
- •Always do both directions
- •Do before every training session
Common Mistakes
- ✕Rushing through circles too fast to actually feel or improve the joint's range of motion
- ✕Treating this as sufficient warm-up on its own without any light-load ramp-up before heavy wrist work
Consult a qualified coach or medical professional before starting a new training program, especially if you have an existing wrist, elbow, or shoulder injury.
