Exercising regularly not only helps keep you get fit, but it can help improve your range of motion as well. There are nine exercises in particular that can help you limber up and improve your mobility.
One of those exercises is a simple wrist stretch that can improve the range of motion in your wrist and strengthen it too. This is especially helpful if you work and type a lot on a computer. The wrist stretch can be performed on an exercise mat by putting your hands palm down and slowly stretching forward while putting more of your body weight against your wrists until you feel the stretch in your forearms.

Now that most of our shopping is done online, it can be a little challenging to have holiday gifts shipped without spoiling the surprise. Thankfully, there are a few tricks you can use to make sure it doesn’t happen.
For example, if you’re ordering from Amazon, you can check the “this is a gift” box when finalizing your purchase. This will add a to/from tag on the box and include a gift receipt. That way, the recipient will know it’s a holiday gift, and they hopefully refrain from opening it too early.
You can also use the additional address line to write your message, alerting the recipient that the delivery is a gift. This is a good option to use for nearly any online retailer that doesn’t have a gift option at checkout.
No one wants to spoil a good-intentioned gift during the holidays, especially with how this year has gone. So be sure to make a real effort to keep the surprise gift-giving tradition going.
