How to Eliminate Wrist Pain When Doing Push Ups

Home News & Videos How to Eliminate Wrist Pain When Doing Push Ups

Experiencing wrist pain every time you do a push-up? Try changing the way you position your hands.

In this video, we share three ways you can reduce pressure on your wrists the next time you do a push-up. These include:

  • Using dumbbells when performing the push-up.
  • Placing rolled-up towels under your palms to elevate your wrists
  • Spreading your weight evenly through your fingers and palm.

If you try these tips and still experience wrist pain, consider getting your wrist evaluated. Book an appointment at JAG Physical Therapy at one of our clinics in New Jersey, New York, or Pennsylvania to determine whether physical therapy may be appropriate for you.
