hi everyone

few months ago, i traveled to a city n couldnt play the oud for 3 days. when i came back, my hands, specially my right hand were out of service!!!

does anyone know any special exercise to do while we cant play the oud?

thanx, Amir

What!? out of service after 3 days??!
This can't be true!! How long have you been playing oud?
Do you have any joint-problems?

Anyway, I find stressballs a good way of keeping your fingers "in good shape".
