Build those forearms
I noticed that bodybuilding.com has an article outlining and explaining the importance of working out your forearms and they’re right.
You need forearms to fill out your arms. Guys always hit the gym wanting to do a million bicep curls in order to look jacked, but they forget two muscle groups: Triceps and forearms. In fact, the bicep isn’t even the biggest muscle in your arms, it’s actually the tricep so it would naturally make sense to focus more of your effort on your triceps rather than your biceps, but that isn’t always the case.
The point of this post isn’t to bash frat boy lifters (Again) it’s to add on to bodybuilding.com’s article about building huge forearms. They only mention doing seated dumbbell wrist curls to build your forearms. I actually don’t prefer this method for building my forearms. I prefer a behind the back standing wrist curl using a traditional barbell. Here’s an example of this being performed:
If you’re serious about really building up your grip strength, I recommend you go over to EliteFTS and pick yourself up some Fat Gripz to really work your forearms with each end every rep you do in the gym. In a month’s time you’ll notice that your grip has gotten almost twice as strong as a result of using them constantly.
