[quote=brandon1]When I was younger I sprained my wrist and continued strength training along with mountain biking. It caused me to have minor tendonitis in my left wrist so I can certainly recommend being patient. Perhaps consider focusing on areas a lot of traditional strength trainings doesn't focus on. Work on your flexibility, works on hamstrings, lower back, upper back etc. Stuff like home Pilates exercises that don't require equipment can build supporting muscle strength that will translate to bigger lifts (seriously). There are some advanced lifts like the Zercher squat that don't require your wrists, nothing builds serious functional strength quite like them. You need the flexibility and core strength to safely pull a barbell off the ground <literally with your elbows>. They're not for everyone but one of my favorite lifts. For a less advanced lift, simple front barbell squats are also an option. [/quote]
