Start with neutral reach

Place the keyboard where the elbows can stay near the body and the shoulders do not lift. Keep the wrists near neutral rather than bent sharply upward or sideways.

Let the fingers move

Avoid pressing harder than necessary. The hands should travel only enough to reach while the arms and shoulders remain relaxed.

Breaks are part of performance

Short changes of position and visual focus are more useful than waiting for severe fatigue. Longer practice is not automatically better practice.

Stop for pain or persistent symptoms

TypeWorkout is not medical advice. Pain, numbness, weakness, or persistent discomfort deserves a break and, when appropriate, evaluation by a qualified professional.
