Rather, he makes a fist (Figure 1) which exposes the thumb to hyperabduction and the metacarpophalangeal joint to injury.

Children, women, and men show similar responses to activity: acute stress, with long-term improvements in cardiovsacular function. There is no cardiovascular reason for restricting activity for children or women. Mental and/or emotional stressors cause similar stress reactions, without the potential long-range benefits of regular physical activity. Athletics is viewed as an optional part of a lifetime of regular, vigorous activity, and as such can make a contribution to one's cardiovascular fitness. From this viewpoint, there is no need to put one in the stressful athletic situation until adequate pre-conditioning has taken place.
