Biceps and forerarms

Jason Da Bodiful · 08-24-2001, 06:36 AM

I have this problem, and that's during bicep training, whenever I lift those weights, it seems that my forearms are getting a much bigger pump than my biceps, no matter how 'strict' I try making the form.

Is there any explanation in why are my forearms getting the majority of pump during my bicep workout? If possible, is there are bicep training that won't involve too much of forearm involment? Cause right now my forearms looked really huge compared to my bis.

What exercises are you using for your bicep training?

*** There is a strength imbalance most likely between the wrist flexors and the elbow fexors.
In simpleton words, work on your forearms.

Yeah, what exercises? Does it happen on all bicep exercises?

I'll normally do 2-3 out of 5 of these exercises: Hammer, Barbell, Alter dumbell, cable bar, dumbbell preacers curls.

And you notice the forearm pump on every exercise?
