Pilates Handstand series with Mariano Dolagaray

For the complete program

If your wrists are weak and get sore from pushups or having pressure on your arms this PrePilates series is for you. Mariano Dolagaray shares a short routine that you can do to improve your wrist and hand strength and mobility. You’ll also get exercises that decompress your wrists that will help to reduce inflammation. Practice this series daily for a week and you’ll notice a difference in the ‘lift’ you feel when putting weight on your arms and a reduction in pain. This is a perfect routine to do before any handstanding; choose the exercises that you feel you need the most and make them a part of your life for happy, healthy wrists and hands. PROPS: Mariano uses 2 pound hands weights and a bar or broomstick with a theraband for this workout. Our thanks to Lesley Bell at Palermo Pilates where this was filmed.
