Eccentric Thumb Extensor Strengthening

Description

You have your hand open, the edge of your hand resting on a table, thumb pointing toward the ceiling, and a rubber band around your fingers. While keeping your hand flat on the table, use your other hand to pull your thumb away from your other fingers. Then slowly let your thumb return to the starting position without letting the rubber band pull it back.
