How to Build ALL 8 Forearm Flexors (4 Finger Flexors + 4 Wrist Flexors = Big & Ripped Forearms!) 💪

[@Dokoooooooooo]

This guy know what he is sayin, Im an armwrestler and you are 100% right about all of this videos. science are beautiful.

[@corrymichelini]

Yes!! Been waiting for this video since you've done the other forearm video.

[@DrGains]

Haha it’s definitely been a long time coming!! Hope you like it 💪

[@avocado9763]

The best explanation of development of the forearm I ever heard and witnessed. No wonder I never got the development I wanted. Don't get discouraged with some remarks its to be expected. I love your examples. Its what I have been looking for in training. Thanks Doc!

[@lzak3865]

Thank you for this detailed explanation. I added this into my upper body routine. I hope it helps my chronic wrist pain.

[@calisthenicsnetwork]

Perfect explained 👏

[@marcozanon2255]

This is by far one of the best contents for those who want (or need) to workout their forearms. Simply great!

[@guga1517]

make a video on how to build neck muscles!

[@sergioaguirre2933]

Thank you Mr. Gains for your very informative vids. I've been applying a lot of the science you share with us and my workouts are more affective.

[@user-ue5kr7xf7z]

Excellent presentation and instruction, great work Mike.

[@Lightnin42]

Love forearm training, thanks.

[@danielrutley]

Aloha...Wow! What a video. I love the explanations and science behind the forearm workouts - all 3 videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. You're the best on KZbin (and elsewhere).

[@yashsingadiya9850]

Super Duper Great Knowledgeable Work

[@kkrishnaachary8995]

Best please make more videos like this

[@karneymac]

Awesome presentation.

[@avocado9763]

What do you recommend for reps high or low? Heavy or light resistance? 2x a week?

[@goonertron]

Wonderful video! Very much appreciated.

[@kkrishnaachary8995]

Best video of KZbin about fitness 🎉🎉🎉

[@silasgroenning]

Dumbbels seems to slip, when trying to finger curl, however, its not the best dumbells(vinyl), so no knurling. However it made me think about if theres some special eqiuipment for those fingercurls, like an attachment, or a special loadable bar with some genious designstop to make those last centimeters have something to press against. Perhaps you heard about it already? Also.. really thank you for the contribution. You are the most comprehensive channel in bodybuilding ive found. Thank you✌️

Theoretically, would specifically targeting the pronator quadratius give me the appearance of thicker wrists? I don't like how slim they look compared to my upper forearm.

[@pollo369123]

I would consider flexor carpi ulnaris. If you think about how this muscle is on the ulna side of your forearm and is one of the big three shown from the publishing (FDP, FDS. FCU)... Just based on the size and where this muscle is, if i wanted to add "thickness" or the appearance of I would strengthen the Flexor carpi ulnaris and Flexor carpi radialis. Also it would feel great to deeply stretch and get comfortable with nervy but non painful sensations. Move in all ways possible without pain! Cheers.

[@JayQwallin]

@@pollo369123 Thanks for the knowledge. Been looking to add ulnar turns in my routine. Will give it a go now with that information.

[@lohengrinknight]

I have golfer's elbows now, I'm thinking that these exercises should help strengthening my weak forearm muscles and tendons. Am I right? I had carpal tunnel release on both hands and went to the gym to train hypertrophy six months later. Here I am now with pain on both arms and trying to fix the problem while still doing some lifting.

[@nickdechavez]

When doing the standing version dumbbell does it matter if the dumbbell/palm facing your body or facing it at the back (palm facing behind)?

[@Adam-lm2dx]

we want Knee curvature exercises (Knock-knees) and Exercises To Correct Inner elbow curvature

[@DrGains]

Noted 👍 Feel free to use the content request form in the video description to add things directly to my to-do list and bump them up in priority if you haven’t yet!

[@BillyJ10]

Have had huge success doing the forearm moves of the first 2 vids,,great content

[@MorelloZzT7]

Hello! I love your series and channel! Question: How should we go about taking care to avoid medial elbow pain? I''ve read that excessive use of the flexors and finger flexor can cause this and was wondering some corrective actions to mitigate it.

[@prozeeterps]

this is really underrated

[@HelduikerJon]

3:00 i dont have a cable machine at home but i do have a EZ bar, can i use that instead?

[@almigdad]

Can you please make a video on how to fix Anterior pelvic tilt, I've done every exercise on the planet and it still coming back.

[@guapdonfit]

Hey Doc I’ve just watched all your forearm vids 👏🏾 Thanks a lot for sharing such detailed information. I did not know how complex the forearm muscle was. I started training my forearms 2 years ago and I think I developed a TRIGGER FINGER on my left hand (ring finger). I wonder if I’ve been training it incorrectly that I now have an imbalance or just an overuse because I also do calisthenics. Any tip or advice would really be helpful. Thank you!

[@NuclearCarnivore]

Since you asked: an arm wrestling workout would be interesting to me.

[@uchinan_chiburu]

are u from hawaii?

[@HoudalothAli]

The best forearm exercise is attaching a weight to a bar and lowering and raising it using both arms. You will need a rope for this.

[@fantasticsituation9461]

in the first video you said the brachioradialis was the largest muscle and in this one youre saying its the flexor digitorum profundus. which is it?

[@Funthomass11]

Hi Michael, great stuff as always! I have questions regarding the carpal tunnel syndrome: 1) I work manual labor, most of my collegues over 53 get tingling, have pins and needles in their hands to the point where they cannot grab their phone after waking up. I am only 31 but am kinda scared of that. So I wonder whether these excercises are benefitial or harmful to me. 2) What is a good prevention or regime I can implement to avoid getting the carpal tunnel syndrome?

[@LiberatedMind1]

"Isometrics are the least effective for simulating muscle growth". Very limited evidence for that. Isometrics have been shown to be great for hypertrophy, and farmers walks are well known for trapezius development. I think the main reason these exercises dont build killer forearms is because grip is not being stressed enough.

[@sturrrdy]

150.4lb grip strength right now

[@HoudalothAli]

I found wrist curls did nothing. One way to build forearms is heavy gripping with back rows. Another good forearm exercise is attaching weights to a rope and using a handlle bring it up and down.

[@issaccarbajal6815]

I got no muscle in that part of forearm

[@johnkatrina5947]

People haven’t realized a moderate, confident handshake is infinitely better than a handshake intended to show how strong your grip is? The latter which does precisely the opposite and let’s people know you’re insecure? This is where I tuned out because the reasoning showed how flawed it is.

[@PziCrow]

Here's a great and cheap way to train all muscles in the forearm. Get a bucket. Fill it with sand, rice or something similar. Stick your hand in. Move your hand and fingers. This can also add to rotator-cuff training ;)

[@armchairarmwrestler7708]

Arm wrestling has this figured

[@ozzy6162]

That's a great video and exercise but god does it hurt - I think I must have the weakest wrist & hand flexors on the planet.

[@kelvinnaidu6329]

Howcome your forearms are so small ???🤔

[@magos_0083]

If you want big strong beefy forearms look at what professional arm wrestlers are doing. Politely I’d like to say you missed a lot of exercises to build beefy forearms. I didn’t see any pronation exercises, or riser ones.

[@greeksdorok]

Why do farmers walks with 45lbs plates feel good yet when i grab the 50lbs it feels alot harder and less comfortable

[@angelicaterry3367]

question please: if i hyperextend my wrist with a closed fist and keeping that position repeatedly open and close my hand for about 40 to 50 reps (all while forearm is parallel to the ground) each day or a couple times a day, will i begin to strengthen all 8 forearm flexors? If yes, should i also perform the variation of this with my arm perpendicular to the ground? And thank you for producing this video. Thank you for making quality content like this available on this platform.

[@G9bows]

Thanks 🙏
