Set the timer to 35 seconds

Online timer for 35 seconds

On your second wrist warm-up, let the thirty-five seconds run while you repeat slow circles, gentle flexes and relaxed hand openings before the next set. Since you have already completed one round, use this pass to notice whether one wrist feels stiffer after gripping the bar, rather than simply moving faster through the same sequence.

While that second round continues, the timer tab may sit behind your workout notes, music or training program. The countdown should keep progressing in the background, though some phones may delay the sound if the browser is heavily restricted or the device is muted. Leaving the browser available in recent apps makes the signal less likely to be missed in a busy gym.

After the repeated warm-up ends, keep a small buffer before lifting again. That spare moment can cover putting the phone somewhere safe, checking your grip and moving into position without rushing because the signal has sounded. In a humid garage session or a warm Australian summer gym, the same pause also leaves room to wipe your palms before the next set.

Common questions

What if my second wrist warm-up finishes before the set interval ends?

Use the remaining time for relaxed hand openings or simply let your arms rest. Avoid speeding through extra circles merely to fill the countdown.

Should I allow longer for this wrist warm-up in a cold Australian winter session?

If your wrists still feel stiff after the second round, another short pass may suit the conditions. If movement already feels comfortable, the signal can mark the end of the warm-up.
