Hey George It’s sounds like a great routine that you have going on there. I should actually warm up more than I do since I’ve had my wrist and hand bones broken last year. I do much more now than I ever did. In the past, because I have chronic pain and Arthritis in that hand so it’s vital for them to be warm, literally. Sometimes I run them under hot water. I massage and put on some type of Cream like a EMU oil or some type of pain reliever. I flex them. Sometimes I use flex balls which are stress balls and squeeze them and hold it in my hand and move my wrist up-and-down and a little bit sideways. I also have Chinese balls that you hold in your hand and you move them around to get your hands more flexible and improves the dexterity of the fingersup and down and sideways. This is most beneficial, because there’s some weight to them. They’re just like the flex ball, but they are weighted. I do a scales here and there. I can’t say I do them often. I should do them much more often. My warm up is more playing some simple songs with just open chords. Then, I’ll get into some of the more challenging songs.
