All the positive reviews are true. I had to quit yoga due to my wrist pain; now I’m back at it again thanks to these.

I like being higher and having a solid base for my hands.

I recently purchased the Buddy® Yoga Blocks 2 Pack, and they have truly transformed my yoga practice! These blocks are incredibly sturdy and supportive, making it so much easier to achieve proper alignment in various poses.
One of the standout features is how effectively they reduce wrist pain during challenging poses. My daughter, who has been struggling with discomfort in her wrists, found that using these blocks allowed her to practice safely and comfortably. The extra height they provide helps in deepening stretches without straining.
The texture is fantastic, offering a non-slip surface that gives confidence during movements. I really love stretching with these, they make it so much more effective.
Overall, these Yoga Blocks are a must-have for anyone looking to enhance their yoga experience while minimizing discomfort. Highly recommended!

OMG these are a godsend for my wrists! This makes yoga poses so much easier for my palms and wrists. They are the same size and weight as a traditional foam yoga block, but the hand cut outs are SO helpful for my wrists. I also use them for pushups, not just yoga. HOWEVER, I am taking off one star because the hand cut outs on the long side are not steady enough for things like burpees because the cut outs are pushed too far forward and they will wobble. Otherwise, I LOVE them.

Definitely takes pressure off your wrists when doing yoga.

Perhaps the grip width/position simply isn’t good for my tiny hands?? The *idea* is great. My wrists ARE in a better position. For these reasons, I’m not giving less than 3 stars.
HOWEVER…in *reality* while your weight IS shifted to your palm instead of wrists… it’s roughly only A THIRD of your palm. Once I’m in a plank position, the thumb joint and pad of soft tissue under the thumb joint takes about **70%** of my weight distribution.
It painfully stretches the thin web of skin between my thumb and pointer finger (1st pic), stresses out my thumb joint, and puts strain on the radial bone area (2nd pic). The padded area of the palm under the thumb (3rd pic) is a major soft tissue trigger point; those muscles ACHE now. There’s also the radial digital artery and median nerve running through there. With my full, planked body weight on that area for several seconds…my hand starts to go NUMB.
Buuut I can’t return these because I’m an idiot!! 😔 I left these sitting out overnight in my living room…and one of my darn cats sunk their claws into the Right Hand block! Since they’re no longer in like new condition because of the puncture holes in the area shown (4th pic), I’ve just WASTED $44 after taxes.

I fractured my right wrist last year and haven’t got a full use of it. This helped me doing my yoga exercises and I love it.

I have hypermobile joints from Ehlers Danlos syndrome in my hands and started having issues with pain in the base of my thumbs last year. I can’t do a plank or anything with bodyweight on my flat hands anymore. These are a lifesaver and are keeping me going with pilates mat and yoga workouts. I’ve had them for about a year now and they have been so helpful for getting back into shape after injury! They aren’t perfect (they are a little big for my hands, etc.) but so much better than any other solution I’ve tried.

I’ve had a wrist strain for a long time
Was unable to do a whole range of exercises
With the wrist buddy they are all possible again without any pain
Just deducting a star because it’s expensive !

Wrist Buddy is amazing extremely helpful if suffering from weak wrists and fingers.

The Wrist Buddy blocks are a game changer!
I love yoga but have a condition where my wrist doesn’t bend all the way. Some yoga positions were difficult or impossible. These blocks let me do those poses. It’s a simple thing, but I hope to never be without it in my yoga practice. I may even buy them in another color to have a spare set.
