Combatting Wrist Injuries in Men’s Gymnastics: 5 Tips For Training
Click through for details.
Pommels is our biggest concern. The vast majority of older competitors endure a lot of pain.
Some reduce pain with tape or wrist supports.
I’d add a few more tips. Try everything. What works for one gymnast might not work for others.
• Spend more time on the Pommels than off. Reduce numbers on Mushroom, increase numbers on Buck Horse with Pommels. Avoid Circles on Floor, if you can.
• On Pommels ask gymnasts to grip tightly. Be exacting in hand placement.
• Fewer turns with more focus. Don’t waste turns. Have contests where hit assignments are rewarded with reduced numbers.
