For the next exercise wrap a rubber band around both thumbs and place your palms onto a table or other flat surface.
Move them away in opposite directions and let the thumb and finger come back together ( apply about 20 repetitions). The simplest rubber band exercise involves wrapping an elastic band around your index finger and thumb. These exercise relieve stress, stretch the muscles and tendons around the base joint and web of the thumb. Rubber ball and rubber band exercises are ideal for thumb pain caused by repetitive use, for typing, using a mouse or a key board. I would definitely take a break here and there and give your thumbs a little rub down and do some stretching exercises (see below): I find that my twitter, email and IM frequencies have all increased, and I was just wondering if you had any tips on keeping my thumbs in shape?
I bought my first BB(9900) about a month and a half ago, and since then I've developed a pretty healthy(?) addiction to it. Welcome back CrackBerry Nation to this week's edition of Dear Berry! With all of us here at Mobile Nations finishing up our Fitness Month Challenge, I decided this week's submission should also be about fitness and a common issue many of us avid Blackberry users suffer from.
