Your last point makes perfect sense. After my first 2-3 laps I can't hold on anymore. Go sitdown and rest, then the rest of the day I am good to go with no more arm pump.

The best discussion on arm pump. Thank You!

[@yukonjon5964]

Jett Lawrence and other top guys teach to not touch the bar with your palm, only the outside of the hand. hold the bar as if your holding a screwdriver. helps keep the elbows up and keeps you up on the front of the bike at the same time. for this to work though, you also have to drop your heels and keep your knees more straight most of the time. it all helps to keep you centered and the arms don't get as much strain.

Love your content ! Absolutley underrated channel. Thank you from germany.

[@JacobPennisiMX]

Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you're enjoying the content!

[@ramonsuarez1893]

Great channel and content. Makes a lot of logic.

[@motovibez981]

Proper warmup is also a big key. Great content tho! Definite sub. Hope to see your channel grow

[@JacobPennisiMX]

You're absolutely right. I appreciate the support! Slowly but surely, hoping to get this information out to as many people as possible!

[@AOL0321]

Great videos Jacob! Love your channel! Very true about just riding and repetition. Riding mtn. bikes for me and doing static hangs on the bar has greatly increased my grip strength. Also, crazy as it sounds, doing chores around the house(like our Dad's used to on their days off) like cutting wood and just working with hand tools, greatly conditions this grip strength and builds muscular endurance in the forearms.

[@JacobPennisiMX]

Hey thanks so much! You're absolutely right. The people that struggle the most with forearms are people that doing use them for anything tough! How can you expect them to be strong when you never use them? Thanks for the comment!

[@4propellervision]

I have not tried this but I can tell this is going to work well for me. Thanks for breaking it all down. Cant wait for this weekend

[@JacobPennisiMX]

Please let me know how it goes!

[@duffyrides]

Great advice. What you say about arms pumping up for the first few set of laps, resting and then being good to go (for the most part) is exactly what happens when I ride, especially If I haven't been riding a lot. The best advice I could give anyone is to ride as often as possible, and if that's not possible then those workouts you mentioned are great! Thanks

[@JacobPennisiMX]

Couldn’t agree more with your advice! Thanks for the comment!

awesome video man

Sorry to be so late getting back to you! I'm glad you liked the video, I appreciate the support!

[@motodude45]

The more you can involve your shoulders and hips in your riding technique, the better. A proper warm up and easing into it practicing the fundamentals will help alleviate arm pump

[@JacobPennisiMX]

I couldn't agree more!!

[@Themusicbiz]

Wouldn’t a bigger forearm allow for greater buildup before it can’t escape = more time before pump ?

[@JacobPennisiMX]

Hey Eric, that’s a good question. Not necessarily. We want strong muscles, not big muscles. If your forearms are bigger, there is less space in the forearm for them to expand before the fascia (Saran wrap type material that keeps your muscles in a tight bundle) starts to squeeze and compress the muscle. You don’t always have to increase the size of the muscle to increase strength. Hope this helps!

[@Themusicbiz]

@@JacobPennisiMX thanks for your reply!

[@john-wf7ls]

Stop holding on so tight that’s why u have arm pump

[@JacobPennisiMX]

Hey John, you're absolutely right. That falls under the riding technique portion of the video, where I discuss different elements of riding technique that could be causing arm pump. One of the main contributors is death gripping the bars!

[@rossmepstein]

Go tell Jeremy McGrath that you found the simple solution to his arm pump problems that led him to having surgery. "Stop holding on so tight". You ain't real smart are ya?

[@arthurkineard7356]

@@rossmepstein Seriously that is why I don't get arm pump anymore. Technique. I seriously focus on gripping with the legs when I start to feel arm pump coming on and having a looser grip. I can do a two hour hardscrabble and have little to know arm pump. McGrath was probably pushing 110% and that would definitely give me major arm pump
