What are the most effective forearms exercises to gain mass in the encercled areas (see pic)?

Thats a manlets hand

are you retarded

how do you expect to only grow one side of a muscle fiber

It's mostly tendon at that point.

I'm not expecting to not grow the entire forearm. I want to not neglect and actually prioritize mass growth in that area though, because I got very thin forearms and it looks retarded

Stfu you blind faggot

>want to buy one of those captains of crush grippers to work on grip strenght
>they're available all the way from 25kg resistance to 160kg
>tfw no idea what to get and don't want to blow 38€ on something without a clue
forearms were always my biggest body part, even as a little 6th grade kid they were huge. I have decent grip strenght from just going to the gym so I'm afraid all the ones for starters would be useless for me but then again I've never owned one so I have no clue if I could even use the "heavier" ones

Genetics: The Exercise

You can't grow a certain part of one muscle. You work your forearms and you get the shape your genetics give you. Some people have long ones and some people have short ones.

FII FI FO I SMELL THE BLOOD OF A WRISTLET MAN!

the muscle fiber connects from the wrists to the forearm

how do you expect to only grow 1 part of it when the entire thing contracts in that way? its not like it contracts sideways

Reverse barbell curls.

The pump alone is so intense my hands shake like crazy. Gained some juicy gains.

dumbbell wrist curls and a gripper

Dumbell arm fliparound barbell press curl. It made my forearms pop so try that

It's just that i've seen a lot of people with big muscles near their elbow but not so much near their wrists (and NO i'm not talking about tendons, but a little higher in the forearms)

And I've seen other people with a forearms FULL of muscles, from near the wrists (again, I know there are no muscles in the wrists) to near the elbows.

And I just want to not make the mistake of only training a part of my forearms by neglecting some muscles near the wrists. BUT if it's just genetics then I didn't know about it and ok, I'll see how it'll goes with me.

Genetics.

most people I've seen with forearms legit FULL of muscles as you said are grapplers

they probably (along with physical workers, stonemasons and such) have the best and most hardcore forearm training sans armwrestlers

Thanks

Climbers have great forearms

your forearms are made of muscles that go all the way the lenght of it from shoulder to wrist so yeah it's genetics

reverse curls

>along with physical workers, stonemasons and such

Yeah but it's not related to muscles. It's just that they have literally grown their tendons and bones over a long period of time by doing physical labour. They usually have thick fingers as well

but there are many muscles in the forearms, so why would they be related like one big muscle?

yes there are but most of them go the full lenght. there is no muscle that's only there from the wrist to the halfway of your forearm. you can find a way to train individual muscles but that just affetcs what side you see the gains on since they aren't separated on the lenght axis.

I'll take "muscle insertion" for 200.

Any exercise where you use your arms. Other than that Reverse Barbell curls and Zottman curls are two of the few exercises where forearms are a primary muscle group used.

really heavy barbell rows

Hey OP, don't listen to Veeky Forums about those things
Veeky Forums is retarded, they always confuse targeting versus isolation.
it's the same with biceps, you can target the upper part near the shoulder doing drag curls, but you can't isolate it.
I don't know if there is something for the forearm tho.

That's a great pic because it shows where "most" people have most of their mass in their forearms.

So my question is, are there specific exercises to train the muscles that actually go from near the wrists to the middle of the forearms? I'm not talking about training these only, but exercises that don't neglect them especially

wow mister muscle specialist, tell us more

all the muscles you see there are extensors
do heavy lifts
reverse wrist curls
reverse bb curls
etc

Don't go for too much of isolated forearm sets, I developed a chronic tennis elbow from that. There are lots of big muscle exercises that involves your forearm.

Try the lat machine and take the bar with a reversed grip. Lean a bit back and pull it to your chest. Couldnt close my hand for several days and gained diamond tissue.

You are mistaking muscle for fat

Do pull ups as high as possibly you can. the last inches really hit your forearms.
Also hammer curls are golden.
Also doing lots of back exercises while also training arms really makes them forearms pumped.

Wrist curls

pls respond

Behind the back barbell wrist curls. No i didnt make this shit up.

you didn't ask a question though

which one would be the smartest thing to buy for someone with no previous grippers but decent forearm and grip strenght

just do back exercises.

the only people who use grip strength things are fedora wearing final fantasy cosplayers

SUOMI MAINITTU!!! TORILLA TAVATAAN!!
JA HAISTA SAMU PASKA, ET TEE NOILLA MITÄÄN.

>go to a store that sells them
>try them out a little
>get a decent idea of which one would suit you best
>buy them online if they're cheaper

kys

I do back exercises and all sort of other exercises that train grip strenght and I'm not about to stop but these seem like something that you could just "play with" when sitting at home like a stress ball but benefitial. I wouldn't use them to replace conventional exercises.

>wristlets

all I've been able to find at stores are some flimsy plastic crap that only go up to 40kg at best

...

I don't have really big forearms (14.2 in), but I think I'm pretty strong (can do CC No.3), so these are my recommendations:
- CC grippers (because usually Heavy Grip and other brands are just shit)
- Plate pinch. Underrated and pretty good exercise.
- Deadlifts. No one can argue with that.

as a lawyer, I can most certainly argue that deadlifts are not an effective lift for building forearm strength.

It would be a weak argument, but I CAN make it if someone paid me too.

Now that I am done snarky, overhand grip deadlifts are best for thic, veiny forearms

Can confirm. Mixed grip is cancer. Muscular imbalances + inferior gains all in the name of weakness. At the very least hook grip if not regular double overhand

hook grip al the way

I was slipping, tried mixed grip but knew it caused muscle imbalances so I went for hook grip, it still slipped so I just got chalk and now with chalk + hook grip there's no way the bar is ever leaving my hands
it just hurts the thumb a bit

So it's possible to make them thicker.

OP, get a bucket of sand, small beans or peas (dry ones), depending on difficulty and your strength. and try to squeeze your hands and open them inside. Great exercise that will strengthen your forearms endurance-wise) and probably help you with thickness.

The best part is, you can do it for as long as you wish, in your room, watching a movie or whatever. Just don't try too hard.

wrist rotations with a str8 bar

Best forearm exercise is farmer's walks

Pick up some heavy dumbells or kettlebells and walk with them

...

is necessary to walk with them or can i just stand?

Standing and keeping your group would do something for them, but walking and having to constantly stabilize the weight as your whole body wobbles around really makes the exercise

*grip

RUISRANNE SAMU MAINITTU

alright i'll walk then. thanks

how long should one set/rep last btw? or does it depend entirely on weight?

Why do insecure dyels keep making threads like this?

Start with 50s in each hand and walk 100 feet with them. If that's easy, up the weight. If you lose your grip before 100 feet, keep the 50s and work towards 100 feet until your grip strengh improves.

My gym doesnt have those special barbells for the walk, and I would look dumb walking around with dbells, nobody ever does it since my gym is full of BB fags
wat do?

>implying lawyers actually do any arguing

you've been watching too many of those american courtroom dramas haven't you

this post has a point really, big forearms mainly come from just being strong, you should get them just by lifting heavy in general. those exercises that focus solely on forearms look like good ways to fuck up your wrists to me

> I would look dumb walking around with dbells
>nobody ever does it since my gym is full of BB fags

Fuck em. You go to the gym to look cool or to lift weights?

...

>tfw really small gym overcrowded with useless machines

I would have to walk 2-3 meters and turn back, and that's only when gym is empty, which rarely happens.

Fat grips. Get a knock off pair for a few pounds

it is not necessary to walk with them if you only want forearm isolation. the only argument i see is that it makes it a better exercise for your full body. that's like saying burpees are better than pushups for chest because it uses more full body

I just keep thinking of some guy looking at me standing still with 70lb dumbbells in my hands and thinking
>when is he gonna do something with those??? wtf?!

Go to the shop and find one that you can't crush more than 5 times and in mean serious pain if you did a sixth one. That's your starting point

>the only argument i see is that it makes it a better exercise for your full body

The motion of walking constantly moves the dumbbells, which means your forearms have to work harder to keep their grip. That slight bounce with each step makes a big difference.

I'll keep that in mind if I find a physical store that has them

>and I would look dumb walking around with dbells
you wouldn't though

walk on the treadmill

haha you serious, guy?

What do you think motions, briefs, and appeals are? Written legal arguments.

That is the job.

> 2/10 for getting me to respond

not him, from what I've heard from people in the biz, a lot of that stuff is really procedural.
I would guess the part where a good lawyer comes in is finding evidence and using the law to their advantage. and yeah there sure is some arguing

If you are doing volume work like herding people through the system for DUIs, than a lot of it is procedural and the briefs will be mostly cut and paste. You will still be making arguments for aggravating and mitigating circumstances and a public policy argument at sentencing.

I am sitting at my desk writing a brief arguing that my client meets a narrow statutory exception that has been raised 71 times since the statute was passed in 2002. No one has yet met the exception in this state. I have to argue that my client meets the narrow exception of the statutory language and how he is different from the previous 71 failed attempts to raise this particular affirmative defense.

it is different for every case, but arguing is a big part of it. It is about using the facts and evidence to show the court and opposing counsel that your legal interpretation of the events is correct.

yes.
I wish I had the work/study ethic to have gone to law school
I was always a fucking nitpicking argumentative asshole

IF starter is too easy you can use it for warm up

What exercises actually grow forearm muscle

I fuckin love doing these. If you go heavy, they're like deadlifts with added challenge. Favorite accessory by far, they did wonders for my pulling movements.
