Resisted forearm supination

  1. Sit leaning forward with your legs slightly apart. Then place the forearm of your affected arm on your thigh, with your wrist in front of your knee.
  2. Grasp one end of an exercise band with your palm down, and step on the other end.
  3. Keeping your wrist straight, roll your palm outward as far as you can for a count of 2. Then slowly roll your palm back to the starting position to a count of 5.
  4. Repeat 8 to 12 times.
  5. It's a good idea to repeat these steps with your other arm.
