The simple answer is “don’t bend your wrist.” Easier said than done.


Wrap your thumb around the top of the neck if you can, that helps me play with a straight wrist. Maybe your fingers aren’t able to do this, so you can cheat a little.


Play power chords with your index and pinky only - pinky frets then 5 and octave. Don’t play with one finger on each note.


Play E form barre chords using the A-e strings only.


Basically if you have to hold your wrist like that to play it, rearrange something. Either rearrange your fingers or transpose the chord if possible.
