Another tip: look up paralettes, you know those kind of handles people use for push ups, handstands etc, they're a lifesaver (well, more likely a wrist saver) I do handstands so I have a pair and let me tell you, they make even plank bunny hops tolerable 😉 you can also use dumbbells as paralettes as long as they're not too high.

In the beginning paralettes might make your palms a little sore (at least for me they did, but on the other hand I was doing handstands so basically throwing all my 70kg to my palms) but it does save your wrists a lot.

If you feel like making the effort, look up YouTube videos with "handstand wrist warm up" . I've been on a handstand journey for nearly 2 years so my wrists are pretty much steel, but I for sure can imagine how hard/painful all those high planks etc can be if you're not used to have your weight on your hands/wrist...

Just take your time and if it really is painful (not just uncomfortable) TAKE A BREAK, don't push it. When I started handstands and was so eager to learn, I ignored the pain and really hurt my wrists which forced me to take like a month long break from all hand balancing, and it sucked so bad! Well it was a lesson to be learnt for me..

I have the same problem! My wrists constantly hurt (from the sports that I do) so whenever I do planks, I am basically dying. What I usually do it I do a low plank and alter it depending on what the exercise is. Hope this helps!

Hi!
I was browsing the app 1h ago and I found a filter that could be perfect for you: it's the "wrist friendly" filter.
Go to the explore page, click on 'view more' and at the bottom you can find the filters. Click on the one you're interested in and look at the videos it shows you. If you're doing a challenge, just change an exercise with another that doesn't involve wrists or simply skip it!

I'd suggest warming them up before the exercise if the accident wasn't too serious. Or you could just do them on your elbows like on the normal plank position. You could also skip those exercises alltogether and do some of her standing exercises or go running or just any exercise you can do while standing up. Making the effort is all that matters!! <33
