    Any tips on how to strengthen a wrist that was cracked?

    Last racing season I cracked a bone between my hand and my wrist. It never really heeled 100% and when I bend it back as far as I can it pinches a little.I was just wondering if anyone had this happen to them before or knew any ways to help strengthen it to keep it from cracking again.

    go to the local store and find a wrist brace that you can wrap around your wrist while riding,,I had to do this last year and it really really helped..kinda like an ace bandage,,but made just for your wrist..

    I did a very similar thing the last mx race of last season. I broke my left wrist in 5 different places. I had surgery and was put back together using a external fixiator.
    Anyways, last weekend was my first time back on the mx track. It was rough. I bought a set of wrist braces from EVS. They seem to help out a lot. They gave support without inhibiting my ability to hold on.

    Keep working your wrist out as much as possible.

    i got the to end all wrist strengthening work out. get a broom stick or other round like object. Drill a hole threw it in the middle and run one end of a 2 foot to 3 foot rope threw it. tie a knot in the rope ran threw the stick to keep it there. now take some weights or a kinda heavy object and attach it to the other end of the rope. now with both hands on the broomstick twist the stick till its all wound up. keep doing this and adding more weights. i hope you understand what i'm saying...(EDITED) i'm good..we had better send this one to the best of section.
