    Pinch Study

    Posted by Biff_Gordon on December 13, 2021 at 1:47 pm

    Jammed 3 joints of my right index finger yesterday. Swollen and lost mobility today. I was wondering if I would be able to hold onto a pick. Was able to master today’s pinch exercise in short order!

    Ouch! Been there, Biff_Gordon. A lot of damage to my hands/fingers over the years. It worked out since we didn’t need a pick today.

    How did you do with the jammed finger while pinching?

      Did ok. Once your fingers are in position, it doesn’t take much to pluck. Swelling is down some today, and I have about 50% mobility. Its a good week for finger picking.
