Right Wrist Wrinkles

I put my hands together in front of me as if clapping, elbows bent and some distance apart, with a FLV left wrist and a Bent Level Vertical right wrist, when I cock my left wrist in the plane of the left arm, I notice a corresponding rotation anti clockwise of my right forearm. Would you consider that I am also cocking my right wrist? I am not able to cock the left wrist without this corresponding movement of the right forearm. This is what I see when performing the right forearm pick up. However in your video of the flying wedges, you mentioned that it was a no-no.

Thanks for shedding some light on this recurring question of not cocking the right wrist.
If the Right Wrist is Bent and Level, there will be wrinkles at the back of the Hand. However, if the Wrist is Bent and Cocked, wrinkles will also appear at the base of the thumb.
