A member asked:
Why is it that my hand will suddenly feel weak and sometimes i even drop things that i am holding. happen quite frequent. why?

Let me explain: What you mention could be due to several reasons but being young i believe most likely tendonitis in the wrist area, or less commonly you have carpel tunnel syndrome. Do you have any numbness with it? If you do this will be more of carpel tunnel syndrome. Good luck.
