One of the things that ASL speakers need to be cognizant of is repetitive stress, or injuries that can arise from repeated movements (like getting sore thumbs from texting!). Think about some of the signs you know already. What are three signs that you think could give you repetitive stress? For each sign, describe where you might feel the strain in your body (which fingers, the wrist, etc.) and then list one stretch or counter-movement you could do to combat the repetitive stress for each sign. Make sure to explain why the specific stretches or counter-movements you chose would help with those specific types of repetitive stress.
