Would it be good for wrist pain from swimming? How would it do in water?

Sorry, I never tested in water. I think it will works for the pain, but not inside the water. I expect helped you.

While I don't have this particular brace, I have many like it. My wrist hurts during swimming (and lots of other things) due to the water pressure against the hand - the stronger the stroke, the more it hurts. A brace helps that and I would expect this one to help as well. The only problem with wearing it in water is if it is in a chlorinated pool. If there is spandex or elastic, then the chlorine will break the elasticity down. It won't happen overnight, but the brace won't last as long. In my experience a lot of use in a pool cuts down the life of the brace by 1/2 to 2/3. But, this is one of the less expensive braces - so cost per use would be less.

It'd work for any exercise that needs wrist support but I'd advise getting a thumb loop style wrist wrap

I don't think you're supposed to wear it all day. I only wear it when I play golf or do something that I think will involve a lot of twisting and use of my wrist. I hope this helps.

You can't use it in the water. You can use it on your wrist on the bike but you would want to end the activity (and then change the activity type to bike when you upload to garmin connect) you would then start a "new" run when you leave T2 for the run and then end at the finish line as a separate activity.

Yes, I wore mine in the pool & lake several times and it worked just fine. However, after I changed the battery in the HRM, I haven't worn it in the water.

yes I would recommend it for doing your yoga as I had hurt my wrist while doing palms flat on ground during yoga. Be careful as you want to avoid getting a TFCC tear/Ulnar sided wrist pain.

This is a great mouse. But it mostly is aimed at alleviating wrist discomfort.if your shoulder is what is bothering you, I would recommend assessing your chair and desk set up.

If you have any type of wrist or hand pain or stiffness use this product! I use it for lifting weightsand even doing yardwork. Ive had carpal tunnel for 25 years, this helps a lot!

it does for a co worker of mine, its the only way he can do pushups. I like this because its portable, and your adjust in mid extension if you feel discomfort. But I would test out the wrist pain issue with a couple regular dumbbells at the gym first, that way you dont spend the money if you dont have to. But it does allow your wrists to stay straight during all movement. You could always wrap your wrists too like a boxer for added support during it.

I don't know if it would help 100% since you feel it in your arms too, but this has helped a lot on my wrists. I do have pain in my arms when I type and I bought this: BandIT Therapeutic Forearm Band. Check the description out.

Honestly, I believe these wraps would be to tight around the wrist to pull off bodyweight exercises without pain. A plank on the other hand may be ok because this wrap features a nice cushion wrap.

Yes. Great for swimmers - Fully water resistant making them the most effective exercise tools for measuring your heart rate while involved in water sports. http://www.heartratemonitorsusa.com/polar-t31c.html

It will take a resting pulse if you can wear it long enough without your wrist hurting. I warned you before you bought it it's very uncomfortable.

I've never tried while swimming but I would think it would be fine. The only time I lose it is when I'm doing push-ups or burpees.

It would be too big for my wrist. It swings around on mine. Maybe it could be worn higher on the forearm. That could work if that is comfortable. That would be an option.

I can definitely relate to that type of pain. Yes, this will be of some help. It's also smaller compared to a regular wrist brace and I even forget I'm wearing it at times. Hope this helps! !

Padding inside the wrist works best for me! You can try both, but i think padding inside the wrist the way most people wear it
