Swing those elbows in and out to release built up tension.
If it feels good, take a break, and "Duck Flap" it ten times.
Keep your elbows close to your body when typing.
Loosen up and
stretch to reduce typing fatigue.
Stretch those arms out, way out.
Then bring them back in.
If this exercise feels good, do it slowly for ten times.
That should get the blood circulating.
Monotonous, tedious tasks such as volume keyboarding are
stressful.
Exercise is needed in any task, particularly stressful task. However,
although it is fun to stretch your arms, when typing, keep your elbows close to
your body. You need to be relaxed to develop speed and accuracy. Use the flash
card option in NimbleFingers to build up speed in typing common words and phrases.
Start with
simple, two letter words, then progress to three letter words, four letter
words, and then five letter words. If you are good, really good, try "The
Whammy" which builds typing speed with common words and phrases. But after that,
give it up. Very few people can survive the furious pace of the Double
Whammy!
It is so demanding, you are bound to get tense, and will
have to do the "Duck Flap" to recover.
