Hand/wrist strengthening exercises

[needmoney]

Hey all,

I recently took a few weeks off bass (not fully, just not the regular practice routines) to get some work and earn some cash. After working full-time for about a month doing grocery work and only picking up the bass every few days for a noodle, my fretting hand/wrist just seems weaker than it did before, now that I'm back in my regular practice regime.

So what regular exercises are best to get it back and keep it at optimum without strengthening too much to the point of being tense while playing (I still want to have totally relaxed hands)?

This is what i use to do,
close left hand,brining the four
fingers to rest in your palm,
raise the index and ring upward
while the other two remain palmed,
bring them back and raise the middel and pinky,
while the first two remain palmed
repeat over & over

it's tricky but with practice it'll come..
