As someone who struggles walking I’ve taken both wrist and neck training very seriously because I can do them seated. I started 3ish years ago wrist curling literally 2lb dumbbells. Now I can wrist curl 75lbs in ONE HAND. With a 2.5” fat grip 💪 Not just once. But for 8 sets of 1-4 reps. Also recently I did a workout where I used 60lbs and did it for 3 sets of 10-15 reps. Then afterwards cooled down with 2 sets of 30 with 20lbs. It’s also helped me achieve my plan to get my arm super strong so that I’m strong enough to use a cane. So I’m happy 😊

You should be able to do more than that, shouldn't you? I do nearly that much with a fat grip after just about 1 year and I started wrist training because I have a bad, weak, permanently injured wrist. Someone with a normal wrist should easily be far beyond me in 3x the time, not barely above.

@@PopstarDracula you sir are a badass. I take great pride in my numbers. I also had nerve impingement and atrophy in my right arm so that lead to me taking the process extra slow. I was fine with taking longer and giving tendons, ligaments, bones more time to adapt. It’s also why I had to totally lose my ego and start with 2lb. I will also say that I’m not super heavy guy. When I first did 75lbs I weighed about 150. So it was half my body weight. I’m very happy with my progress.

I think you're against scientific nitpicking, but you're the one who threw out the reference: a stronger grip is associated with living longer, but it's very unlikely that there's a causal relationship. Almost certain, it's another underlying factor causing both things, such as someone being strong and healthy overall. You wouldn't expect grip training to improve your longevity any more than training another similarly sized muscle, which would put it near the bottom of muscles to focus on for longevity. Or am I missing something here?

What you have said sounds quite reasonable. Is it possible that having strong grip strength could reduce the probability of injury from falls? If I am elderly but still have good grip strength being able to hold onto a safety handle of some kind could very well make the difference between cracking my head or breaking my wrist or dislocating my shoulder on a tile floor or not. Just an idea, throwin' it out there.

For those wondering how i build my Forearms it was a case of trial and error over many years indeed.. I tried EVERYTHING you can think of.. My opinion on the best of the best go to exercises were.... # Barbell Wrist Curls performed in a Rack on Safety pins # Heavy Barbell Wrist Curls performed either on a bench or behind the back with a focus on allowing the bar to roll onto the fingertips allowing a great tendon stretch. # 2.5" Thick Wrist Roller # 3" Thick Axle Barbell Deadlifts # Plate Wrist Curls My mentality with Weight and reps was " Go as heavy as you can for as long as you can " 💪

A cool variation is to load a barbell, deadlift it to a hang position around the knees, and wrist curl the hanging barbell. Will allow you to do a lot more weight than a seated barbell wrist curl if you don't have access to pins, and the movement pattern is extremely natural.

As a former Muay Thai fighter, don't let yourself get too lost in the weeds. Forearm-specific strength work is nice, but outside of really drilling the hell out of positions/grips to avoid and how to recover if you find yourself in a compromised position the single best thing you can do is to SLOWLY transition your pulls (rows, pull ups, and deadlifts) to what I call a Phalanx grip. This only works with "normal" size handles and bars, and preferably nonrotating handles when it cones to cable attachments. It is simply a grip where the bar is held by the fingers alone, not fingers + palms. The bar will be on the middle (2nd) bone of the fingers, not on the fingertips and not where the palm side of your knuckles get calluses. The reason this is a fundamentally helpful grip to slowly transition into (over the course of 2-3 months, 1 set at a time basically) is that 1) this takes ZERO extra time to perform and 2) it ensures the intrinsic musculature of the hands (internal and external interosseous muscles) get fully loaded in addition to the deep and superficial wrist flexors and the wrist extensors. This avoids offloading a significant portion of the stress from the intrinsic hand muscles onto the palmar fascia, and it also puts more stress onto the flexors and extensors. Because this is a bigger change than it seems, it is very important to approach this with patience and caution. You will feel fine for most or all of the first set and then at some point in subsequent sets you will go from "oh this is fine" to "hmm, my wrist tendons are about to explode" over the course of just a few reps. It is very important to immediately revert back to the standard palm grip as soon as you start to notice this. As the weeks go by you will find this happens less and less, and your wrists and hands will get noticeably stronger, thicker, and more stable. After a few months you will rarely, if ever, feel the need to switch back to a palm grip due to discomfort. You will also find that your all-around grip strength increases quite a lot, from open hand strength to gi grips, wrist grips and arm drags, crushing strength with grippers, pronation and to some degree supination, and even resistance to forced wrist flexion/extension/rotation (wrist locks). You will probably also find that you can get more reps with the phalanx grip than the palm grip in many exercises by the time you complete your volume transition. Once you have completed that volume transition to the phalanx grip (at least 70-80% of all working sets) the more direct exercises discussed in this video will become higher yield because they will be the only way you can add more volume or intensity. Whatever you do, good luck and have fun!

5:02 Been doing this one with dumbbells, which I picked up from Basement Building. His argument for using a dumbbell is allowing your wrist to move more naturally over the range of motion, but for me it helps to have my opposite hand assist my wrist joint to minimise the interference of the palmar left wrist ganglion cyst I have to the movement.

Bill Kazmaier was the most correct about training forearms and calves. I’d say look it up. It’s content, but it’s been buried. Most can NOT handle his method but it works amazingly. Rep range 30-50+ for slow twitch fibers to grow. Unless you want to grow the fast twitch fibers of those muscles. You can, but those muscles are made mostly of slower twitch fibers. Low reps won’t give much visual change. Kazmaier (paraphrasing) “it’s going to feel like someone’s pouring boiling hot acid onto the muscle, keep going…” You know what else works well? Dead hang, your heavy ass, for time. Start your workout with that. Then go do your workout after. Hang a few more times while resting between other sets. You’re welcome. Most everyone doesn’t need (can’t handle) direct forearm/calves work. It’s not necessary if you workout correctly. Disclosure: Former fat guy, with great genetics and better looking calves and forearms than most bodybuilders ✌️

Doing extensive grip work two days before my deadlift day made it insanely difficult to grip the bar for heavy sets of deadlifts as well as pull-ups and rows - clearly need to work on them more before they're able to recover sufficiently, so have shifted them around a bit. Needs more than wrist curls though - finger curls, reverse wrist curls and holds for time are all in my routine. It's definitely effective, though, my forearms are pumped as fuck by the end.

BIGGEST forearms I ever saw were on a dude who swore by "The Thors Hammer"....I was impressed. Thors Hammer sounded so bad ass. He laughed. All it is is a 1 sides dumbell. He said "I train them mostly at home. I take a dumbell and put weights on on end and mimic opening and closing a door, thats it!!!"...He also did the usual forearm stuff, not really that heavy either, just good form. The only thing he did "Heavy" for forearms was NOT use straps or grips when doing shrugs..... tried all the above and I improved a lot. Give it a try.

Heavy finger rolls isolate the finger flexors and seem better for grip strength. Although the best method for growth and functional strength is to turn big wrenches for 8hrs a day. Breaker bar? I hardly know her

Correction: At 5:30 kettlebells don't change the angle of forces being put on you arms. Is it harder than a dumbbell? Yes, but gravity doesn't change. The position of the kettlebell doesn't change. It won't improve the stretch or the force curve.

If you tend to suffer from forearm tendonitis from heavy grip use, would these help or hinder? Just go real light?

Try finger extensor bands. Light wrist curls would probably help though.

Balance out your muscles in your forearms. The top of your forearm is likely not as strong and tight as the big underbelly part. Strengthen your extensors for a while and lay off the flexors for a few weeks

Probably will help. I had forearm splints from heavy curls and direct forearm work (both flexors and extensors) helped immensely

That tendinitis is usually from finger flexion, not wrist flexion. I’m an armwrestler who has experienced forearm overuse pain from too much finger flexion my whole life, but wrist flexion don’t bother it.

Stronger grip leading to longer life is likely only a correlation not causation. Meaning that training grip wont lead to an any longer lifespan compared to training any other muscle group.
