If you’ve somehow managed to injure your wrists, the first step is to get proper rehab before you get back to exercising

Wrist worry

I fractured both my wrists three months ago. Can I get back to training now? What should I avoid?

—Sohail, Via Instagram

First thing I’m going to ask is if you’ve gone through a proper rehab program. That’s absolutely essential when you’re recovering from an injury, so please speak to a physiotherapist before you return to training. When you start, make sure you go easy with push-ups and any other work where you’ll be flexing or extending your wrists. Follow a proper wrist mobility programme before you start training for the day.
