5 years ago I broke my left hand (fracture on 5. metacarp). Back then I had just started training (for the first time ever) and had been doing so for like 9 monts, but stopped after my broken hand…
I just started my training again 3 months ago - a simple program based on the big lifts, (squat, deadlift, bench, bent over row, pull ups and military press) and it worked fine, so did my hand…
BUT - my hand just started hurting again after a tough series of squats…
So what training can I do, while I give my hand some rest? Seems like all the above excercises are out of the picture…
Thanks for the input, grippit. I’ve thought about that myself - my wrists shouldn’t be strained so I will focus on it next time.
However, isn’t it normal when squatting, that you also “press” with your arms/hands when the squat gets tough? Example, I also squeeze the grips in the leg press…
