FOREARM SUPINATOR PIR #29
Purpose:
To stretch the supinator muscles of the forearm (the muscles that turn the forearm in outwards,
away from the body), to decrease arm and wrist pain and improve range of motion.
Feel It:
In top surface of your forearms (supinator muscle).
Description:
Grasp the “stretching wrist/arm” with the “opposite hand” and have the opposite hand gently
turn the stretching wrist/arm inwards (pronation) so that a gentle stretch with no pain is felt.
To further stretch & relax the muscle, turn the stretching wrist/arm outwards into the “opposite
hand” for 3-5 seconds while breathing in. The opposite hand should resist the outward
pressure of the stretching hand, and prevent it from actually moving. Then relax, breathe out,
and allow the stretching wrist/arm to relax and stretch a bit further in.
Reps: 3-5
