Yoga Wrist Alignment | Anatomy | Understand Why Correct Alignment | Anatomy Yoga Course

#Yogalignment #Patelsvideo #Pranayam

Let us understand
the anatomical aspect.

Understanding our wrists from an anatomical perspective can help us use our wrists efficiently, not just for yoga, but also in daily life.

We can protect our wrist joints by practicing deliberate and controlled movement.

It is important to keep the wrist joints in action, i.e flexion as well as extension
in other words, we need to keep them moving.

This keeps them healthy
as mobility maintains the fluidity
of the synovial fluid.

This synovial fluid nourishes & lubricates the joints, it can also calcify i.e its gets hardened
Or ossify i.e turns into bones
and it might constrict our range of motion
if we do not maintain mobility in the wrist joint.

If we take a closer look at the wrist’s anatomy,
we find that the radius makes frequent contact
with the carpal bones.

The wrists are formed by our 2 forearm bones
i.e the radius and ulna.
They meet at the wrist joint
where there is cluster of small bones
i.e carpal bones.
The carpal bones connect with 5 long bones
i.e metacarpal bones
that make up the palm of the hand.

From there, the metacarpal bones connect
to the bones of the fingers (phalanges).

The carpal bones form a tunnel
through which
tendons and nerve tissue pass
to service the hand and fingers. 

One primary focus
of hand engagement is
to avoid collapsing into this tunnel
and keeping excessive pressure
from cascading into that track
of muscle and nerve tissue.

Inner Wrist/Radial Hand
The thumb, index and middle fingers
connect to some of the carpal bones and eventually to the radius.

The radius is much broader than the ulna at the wrist and can therefore bear more weight than the ulna.

NAMASTE JI, thank you for the information. a doubt, when doing elbow side plank, how our weight is distributed? is it on ulna bone or on elbow joint?
