Exercises
• Always start the exercises slowly and get accustomed to the movement
and the resistance (warm-up).
• Never work into the pain, always remain within your personal range of
tolerance - dangerous overload is thus avoided reliably.
• Slowly increase the intensity of the exercises (velocity/range of motion)
to your personal maximum possible strength and work out until you are
no longer able to execute the movement properly of your muscles are ex
hausted.
• Finish the exercise and do not start again before having a relevant break -
5 to 8 hours normally sufficient.
Muscle-Exercises Foot - Pronation/Supination
movement:
Sligthly lift up your foot
and move in semicircle
from outside towards inside.
Lift up your foot in out-
ward movement (prona-
tion) and press down in in-
ward motion (supination).
Muscle-Exercises Hand - Pronation/Supination
movement:
Rotate your hand and fore-
arm out and inward (looking
"into"the fist = supination, loo-
king "onto" the back of the hand
= pronation).
Extend and spread your fingers
in inward rotation, make a fist at
outward rotation.
