@doczac Hey doczac,
Recently my left thumb joint (reflex muscle i think) has started to hurt a good bit. I play mostly FPS such as COD battlefield and halo. With the handmaster pro, can it not only prevent injuries, but also help my thumb joint recover and strengthen?

very interesting, but this is for pressing buttons only. wot about sliding, can you exercise the thumb for lateral movement, not just up and down

this is very interesting to me. i recently found and purchased a handmaster while searching for hand exercisers via amazon.com. this one seemed to get good reviews and it was a good price, so i bought it. i partly was looking because of my recent affair with Fifa 11, which kind of cramps your hands after a while because of the way you end up holding the control. this product has helped me feel better in just a couple days and i look forward to using it continually. i also play guitar :)
that is a joke right?

@iDoodleTv :
Not sure what you're asking Doodle... Are RSI injuries from playing video games a joke? Not a joke at all. Muscle imbalance from repetive motion occurs over time which causes blood flow and muscle imbalance problems at the hand, wrist & elbow.

Just last night I played some Call of Duty MW3 more intense then I've ever played which improved my performance. As a result my left hand started getting tired which then caused my thumb to twitch. It was scary since I've never experienced my thumb twitching like that before. Of course, I discontinued my gaming session but I'm worried that I won't be able to play intensely anymore. I know many other people play Call of Duty way more often then I do and they don't have this issue.

@WolfShadow1234 :
We're all different DNA-wise and have different degrees of tissue and joint health & especially blood flow based on our experiences. Be consistent with proper balanced exercise to maximize ur individual potential for muscle & joint health. Also check that your diet includes fresh vegetables and lots of water. Your nutrient balance is key for all of your muscles, even your hand muscles!

Handmaster Plus exercises the hand through natural ROM so allows you to mimick any movement.

@iiLegendHD : I am hopeful that you have a health care professional that can advise you of safe exercise to stimulate circulation. I can suggest Handmaster Plus soft, which will guarantee better blood flow and strength for your hands, wrsits and forearms, but your Dr. must first approve. Let me know if I can assist further.
Best,
Terry
