Are these just a meme? What should I do for forearms?

Captains of crush are very good for crushing strength. Yes it will build your forearms.

>>76251177 (OP)

nah that's how you get good grip strength and forearms

>>76251177 (OP)
>What should I do for forearms?
deadhangs or any other excercise that involves hanging on the bar + throwing away your lifting straps, you dont really need to to any dedicated excercises for forearms if you arent doing some meme workouts

>dat pricey spring (yes, it's just an fucking spring that's all) are very good for crushing strength. Yes it will build your forearms.
no not really, u should never over-grip anything it's bad for wrist
>>76251200
again - using your grip to the max is not good, forearm is very complex and gripping is very complex and u're gonna fuck yourself up doing so

i find that pronation and supination of forearm does both - grip strenght and forearm size, tried numerous methods of loading said pronation and supination but recently came up with sth cool:

i was doing idk, isometric shrug hold with perfect posture for upper traps scm and levator scapulae - shoulders straight up while i hold 2 light dumbbells
>bwhahaha lol 2 light dumbbells
well i did very strict 50 kilo barbell rows 5-7 sets of 20 with 50 kilos and before that less strict 70 kilos also sets of 20 and my traps and neck wasn't nearly as developed as with two 5 kilo dumbbells isometric hold, but alas
i was doing something with dumbbells and i pressed dumbbell down onto pad with pronated forearm providing load via friction and supinated my forearm (one at a time), supinate modulating the load via friction, lift up pronate forearm and do it again, and again and it works, of course u can do pronation the same way

before that i was just holding stick by one end and "armwrestling" working hand by providing load on the other end of the stick with free hand, forearm with stick must be pressed into pad - u're rolling forearm on that pad cause u don't want any load to go above elbow, both pronation and supination

>n-noooo pronation supination bad cause sth
your friednly yt fake natty powersharter swears by it, only that he's got no clue how to perform it correctly:

it's the last one - the globe plastic trinket - only he is holding weight UP both in wrist and in elbow - hence all the stupid and unnecessarty jolting when he does it

>>76251177 (OP)
For grip strength I just pick up the heaviest bar I can hold and hold it as long as I can. I also like to try holding bumper plates.

For forearms I do wrist curls, reverse wrist curls, hammer curls, reverse curls

>>76251444
no bot, u do none of this shit cause u're and bot :D

supination and pronation of forearm against resistance does both >>76251372

just get one of those adjustable ones and save money

it's almost like it's the cleanest image of a grip trainer available on google images, retard

>>76251177 (OP)
CoC's a great, used them to rehab after a forearm injury. If you can make it to working out with #2s it's instant gains and pullup king unlocked

i get crazy gains with these, being soi af. 3x8 and 3x5 negs 2x a week. started with 100lbs and already doing 200 for negatives

>>76251372
Retard that only rows 50kg is trying to give advice.
>the absolute state of /fit/

G-g-g-grippers are bad for you!
>No they aren't pussy. Just train stop whining.

>>76253425
>crazy gains

Don't see the point. If you just do your lifting like you should your forearms will grow with everything else

>>76253494
training body parts directly is more effective than training them incidentally. Some people just want big juicy forearms brother it aint that deep.

I find that consistentently doing endurance+strength for longer periods of time all is best. If looking for vascularity you need to keep blood pumping, sun helps because coldness makes veins receed. Most gnarly my forearms looked was landscaping 12 hour days.
Right now i do this for targeting arms
>barbell curls
>curls
>reverse curls
>Pullup bars with no grip (not same routine usually)

>>76251372
Calves and forearms are built for endurance. They only grow from heavy, consistent load.

>>76253558
Btw i should add that eccentric overload on reverse curls is important for forearms

>>76253494
I been lifting consistently for 4 years and my forearms are still barely 12 inches

this is the real forearm meme gadget

>>76253706
what's your deadlift?

>>76253488
i mean from 100 lbs to 200 in some weeks obviously

>>76253890
I don't deadlift

>>76253994

No one wants to carry some BS like that around with them all the time

>>76253583
>heavy
so like anything else
>consistent
so like anything else

What to do if I don't have a bar to hang from?

Do you still need wrist curls if you do hammer and reverse?
