5 Min Hand and Forearm Stretch Routine
5-Minute Hand & Forearm Stretch Routine for Guitarists
Designed by a Manual Osteopath. Built specifically for guitar.
Most stretch routines weren't designed for guitarists. They're generic hand exercises repurposed from physio handouts or videos fine in theory, not built for the specific demands of fretting, picking, and gripping through a two-hour session.
This one is different. Six targeted stretches, in clinical sequence, for the exact muscles and tendons that take the most load when you play.
Inside:
- Six stretches targeting the hands, wrists, and forearms in the correct order
- Clear visuals for every exercise
- A printable one-page quick reference to keep beside your guitar
- Guidance on timing, duration, and what to watch for
- No floor work, no equipment, five minutes
Who this is for:
Guitarists over 40 dealing with forearm tightness, wrist stiffness, or hand fatigue. Players returning after a break or injury. Anyone whose hands feel worse after playing than they should.
