#Ulnar Deviation Exercises

With nerve injuries, we want to get the spine moving, especially looking at restoring same side neck rotation. Here we are looking to rebuild tolerance of the ulnar nerve in the cubital tunnel during throwing following a forearm strain while working on overall forearm force output. This video should be a @terry.phillips.dpt tribute video with some of the exercise selection #bridgeptp #baseballphysicaltherapy #physicaltherapy #miamiphysicaltherapy #armcare #pitchingcoach #baseballrehab #tommyjohnrehab

The percentage contribution for ulnar deviation is calculated by dividing an individual muscle’s torque by the sum of all muscles involved. According to the Holzbaur et al. (2005) model, we determine raw force through PCSA (the total area of muscle fibers), which is 2.1 cm^2 for the ECU and a beefier 2.9 cm^2 for the FCU. However, leverage makes a difference. The moment arm is a measure of mechanical advantage measured by tracking how far a tendon moves during rotation (Garland et al. (2018). Because the ECU has a much larger leverage of 23.7 mm compared to the FCU’s 11.7 mm, its calculated torque (49.77) outweighs the FCU’s (33.93), resulting in the ECU providing 59.5% of the total force despite being the smaller muscle. #armwrestling

“ 5 BEST WRIST EXERCISES “ 👇 1.Band resisted ulnar deviation is an excellent exercise to strengthen wrist after injury. It helps alleviate symptoms such as swelling, stiffness and pain brought on by injuries or inflammatory conditions. 2. Improves strength and coordination of the wrist and forearm muscles. Increases range of motion in the wrist joint. Reduces pain and discomfort in the wrist and forearm. 3. Less soreness and pain, Better mobility and range of motion, Improved grip strength and Increased blood flow. 4. This exercise strengthens the motion that turns palm upward. 5. Increased mobility and range of motion in wrists, Improves joint and muscle health in wrists. #wrist #arms #forearm #mobility #rehab #painfree #personaltrainer #chennai #acceleratefitnesschennai

Ulnar Deviation and Radial Deviation: Manual Strengthening - by @mikereinold - 🧠 WANT TO LEARN MORE FROM ME? Head to my website MikeReinold.com, link in bio. - To perform manual strengthen exercises for ulnar and radial deviation, you can use a stick to hold onto in the standing position. I then give resistance through the end of the stick. - 👊 Was this helpful? Tag a friend below and share! - 🤔 Have a question/comment? Drop a comment below! - 💪 WANT TO TRAIN WITH CHAMPION?

Thank you for helping us reach 100k!! Exercises will be explained in detail on our stories this week….don’t miss it! 👀 From extension & flexion to supination, pronation, and radial & ulnar deviation we’ve got all the moves to keep your wrists happy and healthy. ❄️ Cozy up this snow day and give your wrists some TLC! 💡 Exercises are for educational purposes only. Full demos on our stories this week! #occupationaltherapy #handtherapy #exercisetips #exerciseathome #wristpain #snowstorm

Weak forearms? Do this 👇 If you do BJJ or any type of grappling, this is a must to add in weekly. Grip strength is a missing link to full body strength. It affects your lifts, your control, and even injury prevention. Try this👇 1️⃣ Wrist curls 2️⃣ Reverse curls 3️⃣ Ulnar deviation 4️⃣ Static finger holds 10 reps each Repeat 2 to 3 sets Simple. Effective. Underrated. Save this and add it to your routine 2 to 3 times a week. #bjj #martialarts #grip #gripstrength #grappling

Tingling in your ring and little finger? That’s your ulnar nerve. It runs behind your elbow through a tight space called the cubital tunnel. Too much bending… leaning… or pressure… = compression. That’s why you feel: ⚡ Tingling ⚡ Numbness ⚡ Weakness Ignoring it makes it worse. You need: ✔️ Less pressure ✔️ Better positioning ✔️ Gentle movement Fix it early.

💥Intrinsic Exercises: Ulnar Nerve Weakness💥 Just a few exercises that can help address weakness related to ulnar nerve injury: 1️⃣Powerweb: Lumbrical grip 2️⃣Putty: Lumbrical Pull 3️⃣Large sponge: Lumbrical Pull 4️⃣Putty: Lumbrical Pull 5️⃣Sponges: Pick up and drop 6️⃣Baoding balls: Graded - easier on the table and harder while standing 7️⃣Sponges + rubber band finger spread and squeeze #handtherapy #occupationaltherapy #physicaltherapy #physiotherapy #handrehab #handrehabilitation #handexercise #stiffness #handstrength #gripstrength

Ulnar Deviation. Lock It in.

The “OK Chain” - Ulnar Nerve Glide Meets The MoveMed Bend Fascial Line Activation This drill combines two powerful concepts: a neural glide of the ulnar nerve and a myofascial lengthening of the posterior chain. 1️⃣ New Movement = New Brain Maps This is true NRE - we’re stretching both nerves and fascia with one coordinated, rhythmic movement. 2️⃣ Ulnar Nerve Glide By making the “OK” sign, flipping the hand back (palm up), and bringing it under your jaw while looking through the loop - you’re actively mobilising the ulnar nerve. This gentle tensioning and releasing helps reduce neural sensitivity and improves mobility through the arm, shoulder, and neck. 3️⃣ Fascial Chain Lengthening Now layer that with the posterior fascial stretch by crossing your legs and bending away from the back leg. This creates tension through the gluteal muscles, thoracolumbar fascia, and even into the latissimus dorsi - the very same tissue line that connects into the shoulder and contributes to both lower back and shoulder mechanics. 4️⃣ Shoulder Pain & Lower Back Pain? This combo targets both. The ulnar glide improves nerve mobility through the arm and neck. The fascial stretch helps decompress the spine and activate deep stabilisers of the lower back. It’s not just about stretching. It’s about giving the brain new data - this novel movement recruits deep stabilisers, stimulates the nervous system, and teaches the body that it’s safe to move in these planes again. And that’s what NRE is all about: Repetition + Novelty = Longevity. Enjoy! ✅ Save this one for later? ✅ Share with someone who needs this. ✅ Don’t forget to follow for helpful tips.

Ulnar nerve glides are gentle exercises designed to mobilize the ulnar nerve, improve its movement through surrounding tissues, and reduce irritation or compression — often used for conditions like cubital tunnel syndrome or ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow or wrist. Start position • Sit or stand tall. • Arm out to the side, shoulder at ~90°, elbow straight, palm facing up. 2️⃣ Make the ‘OK’ sign • Touch your thumb to your index finger, making an “O” shape. • Keep the other fingers straight. 3️⃣ Wrist position • Extend (bend back) the wrist slightly. 4️⃣ Elbow bend and head tilt • Slowly bend the elbow, bringing the “OK sign” toward your face, as if bringing a phone to your ear. • At the same time, gently tilt your head away from that side. 5️⃣ Reverse • Straighten the elbow back out, tilt head toward the arm. ✅ Repetitions: Do 5–10 reps, 1–2 times a day, or as directed by a therapist. #theraphysical #theraphysicalteam #physicaltherapy #rehab #movement #occupationaltherapy #wallingtonnj #lyndhurstnj #rehabilitation #nerve #nervedamage #tingling #fingertingling #carpaltunnel #movement #theraphysical #handpain #neckpainrelief #neckpainrelief #cervicalspine #ulnarnerve
