Keen to keep exercising, but are unable to because of your achy wrists? As long as your GP hasn’t advised against it, then there’s no reason why you shouldn’t continue to workout. You simply need some alternative exercises that don’t put as much pressure on them, like this workout. It will continue to build up your overall strength, so you don’t need to worry about losing all your progress, and all you’ll need is a pair of light dumbbells.
As well as adapting your exercises for your weak wrists, it’s also important that you include a couple of exercises that strengthen them too (such as this speedy 10 minute forearm workout). As, according to fitness brand DMoose, wrist strength is important for good grip, stability and it will reduce the likelihood of pain and carpal tunnel. There's also gym accessories you can buy to help support your wrists, like wrist wraps, but, again, you don't want to become too reliant on these as it's important you naturally build that strength back up.
