Why Your FOREARMS Suck!

I’ve been reading alot of threads about how people can’t get their forearms to grow. So, I decided to tell you why and what to do about it. I left some basic tips in some other threads, but here is the meat and potatoes recipe.

#1 Reason your forearms won’t grow? BECAUSE YOU LIFT LIKE A PUSSY! You lift the amount of weight that someone who owns a pussy would lift.

#2 Reason your forearms won’t grow? BECAUSE YOU ARE A PUSSY! Your forearms probably look like they belong to someone who owns a pussy.

That’s it, clear as day. Plain & simple. If you want forearms that look like a mans and distinguish themselves from a womans forearms, then you better learn to lift like a man and be a man.

Forearms are the most difficult muscle to grow because of genetics. Even that matters none. They are also the most painful because of the high latic acid build up, and that matters none.

The secret. Which its really not. HEAVY WEIGHT + HIGH REPS Use UNBEARABLE amounts of weight with LOTS of reps. This will hold true for any muscle. You DO NOT HAVE TO COMPLETE A FULL REP. If you learn how to just use weights that are to heavy for your normal use; WITH GOOD FORM, your body will be threatened and be forced to grow to adjust to these new extremes.

Anything less than 100 lbs is just pussy weight and should only be used by someone that owns a pussy. YOU DO NOT NEED TO COMPLETE A FULL REP. IN FACT, IF YOU CAN DO A FULL REP at the begineer level, THE WEIGHT IS TOO LIGHT.

There are 2 basic exercises that everyone knows.

EXERCISE 1- EXTENSOR REVERSE WRIST CURLS

EXERCISE 2- FLEXOR WRIST CURLS

You do this exercise standing or sitting once you get strong enough, or even behind the back fror the wrist curls. It doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters is how much weight you are using. It doesn’t matter as long as you can barely hold the weight in your hand and you can’t complete a full rep. You will do PARTIAL REPS OF ABOUT AN INCH OR SO OF THE MOVEMENT. USE YOUR MUSCLES TO FORCE THE WEIGHT TO MOVE. DO NOT USE A SWING RHYTHM. YOU ARE PRACTICING GRIPPING AND CURLING EXTREMELY HEAVY WEIGHT SIMULTANEOUSLY HERE.

4 SETS of 20 to 30 reps, adjust weight to go to complete failure every set

Begineers use anywhere from 100 to 150 lbs or 100 to 200% of your 1RM for Reverse wrist curls and increase that weight for wrist curls. Intermediates and advanced will obviously be using 200, 300, 400, 500, 600 lbs and so on. If you can hold it in your hands without dropping it and you can budge the weight 1 inch and do 20-30 reps, you have the right amount. If you can’t hold 100 lbs in your hands, please exit the building, and come back when you can effectively hold 100 lbs in your hands. Maybe masturbate for one month, then try again.

INTERMEDIATE 70 TO 100% OF YOUR 1RM

ADVANCED 70% OF YOUR 1RM

ALWAYS USE A THUMB ON TOP GRIP, NEVER PUT YOUR THUMB UNDER THE BAR.

Now how often?
Answer… depends on how your genetic recovery time is and if you have supplimental aids or use AAS. Idealy anywhere from 1 workout of 8 total failure sets every 5 to 7 days. Along with your normal training of heavy compound gripping exercises and no extra direct forearm work. This is a complete failure and breakdown program. Results are immediate. You can get results after the first workout. Your body will adapt to this tremendous threat and be forced to grow bigger. The only question is, will you be forced to change the way you train and grab some man weights and go through some painful reps.

YOU DON’T GET TO HAVE POWERFUL MAN FOREARMS BY BEING A PUSSY AND NOT EXPERIENCING A LITTLE PAIN AND ACHES.

A 20 to 60 lb bar for 3 sets of 12 seated wrist curls isnt going to do a thing but give the guy with 19 inch forearms a chuckle as he watches you flex your pussy muscles.

Grab a bar with 225 to 405 lbs on it and do some wrist curls until the pain becomes so unbearable that it falls out of your hands… the ladies will finally notice your manly forearms and decide you might be the man she wants protecting her, not the pussy over there with the pink leg warmers, GQ haircut, and doing wrist curls with 20 lb dumbbells.

Have a nice day.

You are a dickhead.

But you make some good points. In amongst all the “you’re a pussy bullshit”.

Why MASON Sucks!

  1. His “you’re a pussy” schtick was completely pointless and took away from any legitimate point he might have made

lol,
I was being a dickhead. I just got tired of people complaining about forearms not growing and they wonder why. They want some kind of secret workout or some easy scheme to get them. There isn’t one. The answer is not the one they are looking for, but it is the answer.

The same can be said for calves too. There isn’t secret calve exercise. Put a buttload of weight on there. I have a friend of mine that weighs about 155 and he has about 1200 lbs on the Leg Press Machine doing Toe Presses. His calves are finaly growing. I wonder why. He was doing seated raises with a 45 plate before.

its funny how they agree with my knowledge of training, but disagree with my method of instruction

some people need to be bluntly told the truth, others still want it on a pink napkin

i think i spotted 1 already

Just for once id like it said that a real man is someone who can write a post without redundant chest beating. Some people can do it in an intelligent manner while most fail. Even if you are getting sick of people asking questions. I would hate to see this forum full of that crap.

And remember not to take and AAS otherwise it will take longer for your forearms to recover. That’s right isnt it Mason?

Get over yourself. Anyone can act like a badass on a forum.

yes mam, AAS does help the recovery process if that’s what you’re trying to say, but I would advise against it. It works. Ask the governator. but you may not make the recovery process from the longrun damage.

I would like a 3 or 4 day recovery from full blast failure. But, going natural like me you just won’t get it. Im in no hurry to gain weight. I’m 240. I’ll take the hard route. I’ll just sweat it out.

You proceed to say what a pussy everyone is and then tell us that wrist curls will make big forearms. You’re obviously retarded. Wrist curls with 400, 500, or 600 pounds? It’s not the 1 millimeter partial curl with that wieght that will make arms grow, it’s the fact that you are fucking holding 500 pounds. Anyone who deadlifts or shrugs heavy can tell you that.

hum… T-Nation, that’s Testosteroneeeeeeeee right? not twinkle toes nations right.

grow a pair homes.

Wrist curls? Supplement your heavy chins and deadlifts with wrist rollers or plate pinching and you’ll be better off.

Best way to make your forearms grow:
“SQUATS AND MILK!!!”

I’ve found two good forearm techniques/equipment to add to the basic wrist curling exercises:

  1. The forearm roller - easy to build. Just get a short length of broomstick or PVC pipe, tie a rope or string to it, and hang weights or bricks off the end. Then, hold it straight out in front of you with your arms extended parallel to the ground, palms up or down depending on which group you want to work, and just using your forearms, roll and unroll the weight up and down. Apparently 3 sets of 6 reps is very effective. This REALLY burns and gives you such a pump that your lower arms will feel like swollen lead weights afterwards, and you won’t be able to hold anything for a while.

  2. Gyrotwister. A simple little training device you can buy on eBay or from gyrotwister.com. It’s basically a ball that you hold and rotate with your wrist, with a gyroscope inside that produces resistance through G-force. A few minutes of this will have your forearms screaming for more.

I’m starting to get that ‘bowling pin’ shape to my forearms now, and my biceps are actually lagging behind them! It used to be the other way around.[/quote]

The problem with that is you are still not using enough weight to destroy the forearms. All your doing is creating a lactic acid build up which is why you feel the burn. you can get that in any forearm exercise. You will need real weight if you ever want considerable size.

Anyway you look at it. The guy that can do wrist curls behind his back with a few hundred lbs is going to have much stronger and bigger forarms than the guy who is tossing a brick around a broomstick.

Good idea, good for lactic acid build up and a good way to pop out a vein or two. But there is still no substitute for excruciating pain with 100’s of lbs in your hands.

I like this post.

best one yet!

or you can just do push ups.

where is that Mr. Push Ups guy? I love this site a buncha cross fit pussies on it. not enough guys on a site called testerone that actually have some.

lol

and about the heavy gripping, yes that’s static

this is static and contraction and expansion. this has more.

400 lbs in your hands works. that would be the second best option. most of us guys with 400 lbs in our hands have forearms. but those who dont have the 400 are trying to get them with 40 in a wrist curl. gimme a break.

grow a pair, or add some weight

this ain’t P-nation

What a retard…

The Formulator or The Pegasus are both so far and away superior to anything you can do with a barbell, it isn’t even funny. What about Captain of Crush grippers, or the Ivanko Supergripper? How about Sledge levering, plate pinching and blobs? You’ve missed 80% of what makes up a good forearm workout. Pussy!

Wow, you must be your own private hero. Do you find yourself laying awake at night wondering how you could love yourself just that little bit more?

How 'bout we make the next PI a close-up of your forearms, or isn’t there enough room on the site ?

I reiterate… “dickhead!”

only on a website. its funny how the little guys talk big on here. i would love for the websites to have live cams. might change the perspective if they’re replying to someone twice their size.

i dunno, Prof X is about 270 and he still has little 140 lb guys arguing with him.

oh well… i like the flack, i was hoping to get it from some bigger guys though. this is like reponding to the 5th grader who thinks he can take you because he beat his little brother in arm wrestling.

good luck with your 40 lb wrist curls guys. just don’t ask me anymore what i do for mine.

the information is above. pick up the heavy shit or continue to have smaller forarms than your mother.

as long as you have a screen that holds a 19 inch forearm, id be glad to show you what 600 lb behind the back wrist curls does to it.

bye bye crossfit
