A great exercise for strengthening your fingers is finger push-ups. This type of push-up is most often practiced in martial arts to strengthen joints and develop grip tenacity in wrestling. Strong fingers are the most resistant to injury.
Instructions
Step 1
Finger pushups are truly the hardest level of exercise. Use all five fingers to start, and gradually remove one at a time. Your weight will act on your thumb, and the rest will bend downward. Try to keep your fingers straight and slightly protruding upward.
Step 2
It is unlikely that you will be able to do push-ups on your fingers the first time, so first learn to stand on them. First twenty seconds, then forty and gradually increase the time. Do push-ups from your knees first, but when you feel confident, start push-ups from your toes.
Step 3
Spread your fingers apart in the shape of a spider and place an emphasis on the floor on straight arms. Slowly lower yourself down, while bending your elbows and spreading them to the sides. Then return to the starting position. If you feel severe discomfort during the exercise, stop push-ups to avoid injury.
Step 4
Do push-ups in several approaches with a short break. Remember: it is better to do ten push-ups in four sets than twenty-five times in two sets. Exercise until you feel moderate fatigue in your fingers and muscles. Set your daily value for sixteen hours and do push-ups according to your work schedule or mood.
Step 5
Do the exercise correctly, the main thing is that the body is straight throughout the exercise. Try to keep your buttocks from sticking up, your back not to bend, your head should look at the floor. The deeper the fit, the better, ideally touching the support with your chest or the tip of your nose. Breathing is systematic: when lowering the body, inhale, when lifting, exhale.
