Title: If you want big biceps and massive forearms......
Post by: SF1900 on July 08, 2018, 09:58:47 AM
Do drag curls, the forgotten old school movement. I did Drag Curls today at the gym and my arms feel massive.

Yup! I also feel it in my forearms. I don't know if I am doing the drag curl correctly, but it seems like its almost impossible not to feel it in your bicep AND forearm.

Best exercise for big biceps and massive forearms: Curl a kettle bell, using your grip to prevent it from rotating in the palm of your hand.

Might give that a try.

Id imagine that curling a kettleball really stresses the bicep since you're focused on not rotating it in the palm of your hand.

I love these fat grips. Unfortunately they're too long for some of the dumbbell pairs in my gym.

I think I speak for everyone when I say I'd have more respect for you if you posted this same picture from a mens room stall standing in brown paper grocery bags, while your client nervously checks his watch.

That room shows signs that you're eligible for a hoarders intervention.

Looking big though.

Yup! I feel a huge pump in my forearm and bicep.

You can also feel it more in your bicep depending on how you position your arms.

I do it as the last exercise in my bicep routine.

Just use a light weight to begin with. Focus on the kettle bell just being and extension of your fist. Tears up your bicep and forearms nicely!

I have never done direct forearm work. The constant grip and squeezing of a straight Olympic bar for standing barbell curls really hits the forearms. Also preacher curls with a straight bar burns the forearms like crazy.

most getbiggers get a lot of work done for forearms

but guys, use your left hand once in a while, remember that bodybuilding is about proportions also, not just mass

Really feeling it in my upper forearms and lower biceps today after trying this exercise yesterday.

I did them with both a reverse and regular grip.

I consider standing curls a compound movement not an isolation movement as they are classified.
