Hand pain and stiffness

Hi folks …

I’m a novice trying to improve my typing skills via Typesy at the age of 36. I have spent my entire adult life self taught typing and thought touch typing would be a good skill to learn.

Anyway, I notice that everytime I practice a Typesy course I start to get this weird stiffness / cramp style pain in both hands. Only minutes after starting. After I stop typing in that particular way the pain goes.

I never get the pain in my usual style of typing. Has anyone suffered from this and will it go?

Is this merely my hands getting used to a new, restrained position?

Same challenge, but feel it going better day by day so presume a different approach requires getting used to the hands.
