Hangboarding works well for climbers because hanging off small edges is a big part of the sport. If you're not actually climbing or doing gripsport it's probably not the best way to train since it's a lot of isometric work in a position you'll never use. If you really want to, the look at doing no-hangs / edge lifts with weight on a loading pin rather than hanging overhead. It's way easier to scale up and down and it's less fuck around than adding weight via a harness.

ur content is so good man, thanks for the knowledge big man

This stuff is gold. You are rocking it.

Genes have alot to do with it. I was born with big forearms, both of my sons have huge forearms for their age 12-14. Now if you aren't blessed by genes you will have to build that from scratch. Just pick up insane weight and don't set it down, get a job in construction and push yourself past what you are expected to do. you will develop a body that others can't get. 8-12 hours of hard manual labor gets you there. once you build it all you have to do is maintain. I don't workout in a gym. If you want a nice workout while you sit in traffic, just grip the steering wheel as hard as you can and alternate hands when you get to failure, to it as long as your commute is, and you see development. dumb lil exercises like that can get you huge gains. Also have a heavy protein diet, you dont really need powders or suppliments just eat beef, goat, chicken and fish. you can switch it up, as much as you want pork is good to, eat the fatty meats, all that the human body needs.

Quick Tip: I always carry one of those “Grip Pro Trainers” around. They are these small silicone circles that come in different resistances. They fit for example into your coat pocket or in a bag that you carry on you or leave it in your car. Whenever I am waiting, walking, calling et cetera I just grab it and do a couple sets per arm every day. Over time this nonintrusive volume will add up and improve your forearms without having to make it a big part of your training. Hope this helps for you!

Put some markers on for progresson and you can even do dropsets.

Awesome video, I’m gonna try the barbell wrist curls for sure

It sounds overly simplistic but working out with dumbbells as opposed to barbells helps a lot! The independent movement of db's works out your forearms and grip like crazy. Ever since I changed my workouts to a dumbbell focus my forearms and grip have exploded.

As someone who has tried to grow his forearms for over 7 years, if you don’t have the “forearm gene”, you need to get into Armwrestling and Armwrestling exercises, did more for my forearms than 5 years of “hammer curls, just don’t use straps bro, and heavy rows”.

Club, mace, and kettlebell made my forearms and grip much stronger in about a year. Weird to suddenly have thick forearms at age 65. My hands are also larger. I can do pullups for reps on 4 inch hanging grip globes, so my grip is pretty strong. But my forearms have never responded to anything like the swinging iron

Forearms are my favourite. I use a cable to do behind back wrist curls, this gives you more stability and you can concentrate on contraction. Standing dumbbell wrist curls on the edge of a preacher bench. Behind back barbell holds for 3 sets of 30, 20 and 10 secs. Hammer curls, but lift your thumbs and index fingers off like your hands are pistols. This stresses the smaller muscle groups. Pronator teres, Flexor carpi radialis and palmaris longus. ( Yeah, I did google it 😄). Reverse curls but flex your wrist down at the bottom and up at the top, don't need much weight for this. And try not to use straps when training other body parts. My forearms have always lagged, but training them for 20 minutes 3 times a week using a variation of these exercises have really made a difference.

For people who want to develop forearms but dont want to spend time doing multiple exercises etc, honestly I believe that hammer curls or reverse curls will do great work, because the largest muscles in the forearms are the brachioradialis (which you don't even mention in this video) and the finger flexors, both of which are taxed heavily in these movements, and will fill out both sides of the forearm.

You didn't realize emphasize it but I noticed a brief mention at the end of the wrist curls going as far as nearly completely uncurling your fingers. Another KZread trainer highly recommends this finger opening at the end of the curl. So I do it it too and it is much harder on all the muscles and tires the muscles sooner.

Thanks for the great video! I got a question: usually muscles need some rest. Maybe two or three days between workouts, even more. You're saying forearms dont need that much rest? I can easily add some forearms stimuli daily but I'm not sure that's very effective

Beautiful family 😊

my forearms have been lagging vehind the rest of my body for a long time and they always give out before my other muscles do on things like deadlifts and rows. this is just what i need

The supinated to pronated exercise, done with a fixed 90 degree arm angle, close to the body, rotating the wrist. That lights up my forearms, and the fact that it just requires a weight and a belt gives it a pleasing "monkey with a bit of mirror" simplicity.

I dedicate two workouts a week to just grip and abs. Fairly simple routine, three sets of Captains of Crush, three sets of heavy wrist curls, three sets of wrist extensions and three sets of rotations with a kettlebell.

Using a wrist roller has been beneficial for me.

OMFG I did the barbell wrist curl the other day and thought I invented a new exercise 😂 I tried behind the back wrist curls but thought it was way too awkward so I just randomly grabbed the end of the barbell while it was sitting on the safeties and started doing wrist curls. It gave me an unbelievable pump and burned like crazy.

My forearms exploded when I did false grip holds, and worked up to false grip pull ups 😊

Got anything about calf workouts.

I used the overhand grip when training my deadlift, only switching to the alternate grip when the weight I was lifting was too heavy for just double overhand. I never used straps. At my best I was able to deadlift 200kg (440lbs) with a double overhand grip. I had 17" forearms and 19-3/4" upper arms from that and other heavy pulling movements. I used to do pullups on a 2" thick bar. I was only 5' 7" tall, and weighed 273 pounds at my heaviest.

Realistically every-other-day so long as they feel like complete dogschitt when you lift. *Don’t forget that you need to hammer your extensor muscles as much as your flexors to stave off potential tendinitis. *High reps are magical for forearm exercises. Use a weight that lights that schitt on fire by rep 15, but keep pushin’ to over 40. This’ll be an ultimate Litmus Test on pain tolerance. *Put your wrists through extreme stretches in between sets to really force growth. Think of ways to stretch that you wouldn’t typically find your hands in. This additional ROM helps with growth. *Don’t forget that your forearms also supinate and pronate. You should ALWAYS do at least two sets of each when working forearms. *Don’t forget radial deviation and ulnar deviation. Same rules apply as with supination and pronation.
