    I don't, but I also don't do isolation exercises for any other muscle except calves sometimes.

    Hell yes directly!! Your hands are one of natures finest achievements. You are going to do far more in the real world with them then you you do with your lats etc. How do you think a chimp can rip off a person's face. They work their forearms after hitting the monkey bars.

    Really though, your forearms can take a huge amount of work and not get DOMS. Why would that be???? Why not take advantage of such a gift??

    Heavy shrugs and working back hit them good. Sometimes I do wrist curls. I think alot of it is genetics some people don't have to work em some do.

    Anybody use the wrist roller? the one with the string that you tie a weight on to? That shit pumps em up like crazy. I'm trying to get Frank McGrath type forearms and I'm starting to think that it may just not be in the cards genetically for me lol. Both of you guys who posted pics though can assure yourselves that I'm envious.

    Btw my forearms are getting super pumped from typing.
    Maybe shaving them will help my vascularity show more...
    Let's turn this thread a little suspect..

    Who shaves their forearms and who doesn't?

    I have to work them iso. if i didnt theyd look like toothpicks compared to my biceps. Trainer told me to deadlift without straps and to alternate a supinated/pronated grip for each arm. That helped with some thickness in my case.

    Cleans will do amazing things for your forearms.
    Wondering where to start? Confused? "Homework 1" will get you started.

    Think you're ready for the "next step"? Take this test.

    I already do deads and cleans once a week. I never do pussy chins but I do weighted wide grip pullups and neutral grip pullups. My bi's and tri's still dwarf my forearms so much that it's kind of laughable. I have very tiny wrists, so that makes it even harder. I think I'll go to 3X a week instead of at the end of arm day. Thanks for the advice on the amount of work they can take without getting DOMS. Makes sense.
