HOW TO BUILD BIG FOREARMS TO COMPLETE YOUR LOOKS
big forearms are great they complete your looks and gives you more manly appearance.skinny forearms are big drawbacks they effect your lifting capacity your grip strength. In heavy compound lifts our grip strength and strong forearms really matters.
weak grip effects are lifts badly weak forearms means you dont have enough strength to hold that heavy loads during the exercise. SO to compensate your weak grip we use straps in heavy back exercise which makes the forearm strength lag behind the other body parts. there are two ways to build big forearms
1st method is the indirect stimulation for example
heavy deadlifts
pullups
avoiding the use of straps
using a thicker bar
2nd method is the direct stimulation ,for example
1- Throw your straps away
2- Long bouts of HEAVY gripping
3- HEAVY reverse curls, power cleans, pulls, rows
4- HEAVY upright rows, drag rows
5- HEAVY statics, deadlifts, farmers walks
6- HEAVY hammer curls, then do partial reps and static holds with them
7- MISC ...plate pinching, grippers, towell chin ups(all these will work as well but nothing pisses a forearm off worse than long bouts of HEAVY gripping ...and I mean use some serious weight)
The biggest forearms I've seen was from a guy that never worked out a day in his life. He was a metal worker.
If you have stubburn forearms, I would steer clear of light weights, wrist rolling and curling. You want to activate the largest motor units possible and create a forest of big trees in the forearm. Don't waste your time with the little weeds. Heavy weights, lots of reps. WORK! There's no way around it.
its time to discuss about some isolation exercises for your forearms..ok,so here we go
so here are 5 exercises based only on your forearms to target special muscles:-
1. cable wrist curl
2. farmers walk
3. dumbell wrist curl
4. dumbell lying supination
5. dumbell lying pronation
6. hammer curl
hope this blog helped in every way to increase your forearm size.
