Best form for playing guitar

Heylo people. This is my new style of saying "hello" and "yo" at the same time, for those of you who do not know. Okay, so its time to roll. 

Have you ever thought, that your exercise can effect the way you play your guitar? I bet not. So it actually does affect your picking speed and things like that, for all you fast pickers out there. 

Theory: Okay, so there is one thing you need to understand. Your wrists are sensitive, or rather lets say weak in a way. So if you do certain exercises, which I will be mentioning in a minute, your wrists will become stiff, or will pain. With a stiff wrist, you really cannot pick that fast, let me tell you that. So ifw you try to pick with a stiff wrist, it will not be fluent. Yes, it loosens up after some time, but doing such workouts every day may affect your guitar playing a lot.

So here are some exercises you shouldn't do:

-push ups/dips
-pull ups
-weights

However, you may do free hand wrist exercises.

Look, it really sounds bad, I know. Even I myself cannot give up these basic exercises. 
So here is what I suggest:

Do your exercises, but double your guitar practice per day. This is one thing that has helped me keep up my efficiency over the years. So its your choice weather to listen to this or not.
