Howto: Extend your wrists' duty-cycle

People make fun of me when I talk about extending my wrists' duty cycle, but I earn the vast majority of my living with the parts of my body north of my chin and south of my elbows, and those are all pretty fragile, easily-damaged parts of your body.

Thumb touches help to increase coordination in the thumb and forefingers, and also help to reintroduce blood flow back to the area:

3. Repeat on the other hand

4. Return to the starting position

5. Repeat five times with both hands
