Hi fellas :)
One thing I wanted to mention in recent weeks is a little problem 
which I think might turn into a bigger one along the line...
My arms and hands are the tools of my trade and I have to protect 
them...I have noticed that it is almost impossible for me to 
shovelglove without having my wrists go into Ulnar and Radial 
deviation or extension of the wrist....I know this isn't going to be 
good for my wrists because we were taught to keep the hand aligned 
and "neutral" when doing massage, to avoid problems like tendinitis 

etc...I was thinking of getting some wrist bandage or soft brace to 
keep my hands from deviation under load.
What do you people think? Anyone ever use this kind of self 
preservation prop in your workouts (shovelglove or other weightlift 
stuff)?
I would really appreciate feedback :)
Have a fantastic day and good weekend.
