ive never ever seen someone who does direct forearm work have large forearms. unless heavy reverse curls, like the same weight youd use to clean except youre doing it wrong.
take it how you want, i could care less whether you listen to me or not. everyone is going to throw their 2 cents in and try to knock someone elses methods just because its the internet and everyone wants to be the guru.
Like mentioned earlier, Poliquin has an article on here which will blow up your forearms within 12 weeks. I read it not long ago, its pretty brutal and coming from CP, you can almost guarantee it will work.

You’re really a genius. It’s been mentionned like 3 times in this thread; alot of people have forearms that hate growing, and they need direct work to get them up to par. What works for you doesn’t work for everyone.

Genetics counts for a lot. Calves are the same way. Doesn’t mean you shouldn’t train them.

pinwheel curls.
These are DC lift right? I was planning on switching between these and preachers or just both when I’m done with my current cycle.
How do you like them?[/quote]
They’re awesome, especially when you go really heavy.

After 100+ years of bodybuilding history, LiveFromThe781 has finally come up with the only way to overcome bad calf genetics. It’s a super secret routine that actually involves no calf work whatsoever.
Can I say that squats don’t help your legs because I’ve seen guys with thin legs do squats? But have you met a guy that could squat 600 pounds that has skinny legs? Probably not.
I’ve never met anyone who had done extensive forearm work that didn’t have pretty impressive forearms. Nor had I met anyone with insane hand strength that didn’t have thick hands. You work a part of your body, you get it really strong, that part of the body gets bigger.

There are tons of newbies who actually don’t understand this. I am guessing that is why there are so few people making progress on this board. They may hit the gym, but they think lifting that barely difficult weight some specific number of times (as if simply doing 5x5 or something similar puts muscle on you without you lifting really heavy and getting even stronger) is what puts size on them.
They skip right over the basics that actually work because they feel something that sounds more technical makes them more advanced.
We should be trying to put an end to really skinny newbies GIVING advice on this forum as well.

That is exactly what they do. Some of these guys have memorized every sooper zooty program and can use every 12 syllable word on pubmed, but would piss themselves if confronted with some face reddening work.
