Wrist / Hand exercise.

Here’s also a hand exercise tips to rest or relax your hand as sometimes, especially gamers - when playing games, doesn’t bother the time.. so it’s kinda bad for health, be sure to remind yourself to rest and do this simple exercise every 1 hour? or 2 hour? i don’t know.. x)

START
