Is this item ok for general wrist support - The product description names (3) exercises & doesn't state wrist support for any other exercises.

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

Michael, I'm not a gamer, but I find the wrist braces don't impair the movement of my wrists in any way. Needlework, however, is slower than gaming, so I might be comparing apples and oranges. On the other hand, doing needlework for hours on end with finicky little movements is pretty demanding of the entire wrist musculature and the nerves that pass through the wrist, so perhaps my experience can give you a little guidance. Also, they're worth trying---the price is certainly reasonable enough!

It is suitable for supporting your wrist. My friend had 2 operations on both her hands for carpet tunnel.She wore these supports at night and during the day while recovering from the operations. I wear them to ease the tingling from the ulna nerve. Hope this answered part of your question.

I wear the brace while doing pushups and yoga without problems. Although I do have to mention that this brace will help pain on the outside or ulnar side of your wrist it most likely isn't going to help with pain on the inside or radial (thumb) side of the wrist.

Although I don't do indoor rowing, I found that I got little support from this item for the wrist. It tends to slip up your arm away from the wrist during activity. This may be because I have small hands. One size does not fit all.

It's intended to keep your wrist straight, but can vary based on how tight you make it. It doesn't bend at all Your wrist can certainly bend inside of it if loose enough. The tighter you make it the straighter your wrist is. I started throwing a hook recently so I keep it a little loose, but still tight enough to support my wrist. But yeah, primarily this wrist guard is meant for someone who throws a straight ball and you'll get much more use out of it that way! I was just too cheap to buy one for a hook ball XD

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!

Yes, I can write with this wrist support. That's actually why I bought it - I have a more inhibiting brace that I wear to workout in & anything else that really strains my wrist, then I wear this most of the day at work when typing and writing.

No. That I strut the only flaw that I have found with them. I have carpal tunnel and have quite a bit of discomfort in my wrist while lifting... These cloves are fantastic for protecting your palms from callouses, but there is NO wrist support.

The wrist wrap feels strong and supportive, yet still gives me the flexibility that I like when I'm lifting. Definitely not too stiff. That combo of support and flexibility is really important to me. Hope this helps!

No the strap doesn't provide wrist support. Overall they are some good gloves to workout with. I will get another pair when these wear out. I'll just go buy separate straps.

I wouldn't particularly use them for that purpose. They provide great wrist support for lifting, but no support or padding for the hands and striking.

No mouse can help with that. It's about proper wrist support. If you're having trouble, try various ways to support your wrist so it isn't so bent. You can develop carpal tunnel syndrome and that isn't good... once you get that, it can be tough to recover. Sometimes, surgery is required.

Yes it is. It actually doesn't come attached. You have to attach it if you want it. It's a pretty good wrist rest and very sturdy. You screw it in if you want it attached so it doesn't come off by mistake.

I havent seen anything. But maybe you can just get separate wrist weights....

You can do wrist curls without the blocks getting in the way. Also, with something like tricep extensions, you just hold the out side of the block instead of by the inner handle. There have only been a couple of things that have been a little awkward for me, but I just adjust the way I'm holding them a little bit and they work just fine.

My daughter works on a computer all day doing data entry. She had results the first day, said it did not give her pain. One day when she did not wear said she felt the difference big time. I wear mine and doesn't do a thing for me, but not always on computer and I don't have problems with my wrist. Our bracelets have been worn regularly especially by her. On my first order one broke on her the 5th day and they replaced it. Otherwise all the others are great and I even ordered some more for my other daughter.
