My instructor mentioned spreading the fingers but the idea of pushing with the fingers is a good suggestion. I'll give it a try! Thanks for that tip.

It was difficult to remember, but it eventually helped a lot. Likely, there is nothing wrong with your joints or tendons but just that they are getting too much of the strain at one time.
