WW,you look like a Hazbin clone buddy!
Very impressive to say the least.

Thanks Wes he should have been a pro so I can't touch him. I am happy with what i've been able to mold over 50 with all the spinal issues.

Forearm work actually helps my elbows just like calf work helps knees!

just like calf work helps knees!

Seated/standed calf raises helped with your knee pain? Could you elaborate please?

Direct tibialis anterior work helps massively with dorsiflexion.  All gyms should have a tib raise machine lurking in one small corner.

my forearms used to be probably my best body part for a few years. this was more simply the fact that when i was training biceps i was using way to much forearm and grip aswell as with some other exercises. when i finally figured out how to train properly my forearms did shrink a tad but my arms grew so it really was not to much of a let down.

Also i noticed when i am dehydrated or not concentrating my water intake i notice my forearms are much smaller.
Winstrol always makes my forearms pop nicely though

An update :  Been training forearms once a week and theyre back ! the upper muscle of forearm still  not the same as younger years but forearms overall is  way thicker than that unfortunate superbowl sunday night picture someone took  ....

I'm finishing arms workout with 4 sets of hammer curls that's it !

Thanks for the good advice .

I worked in the ship yards as a mechanical fitter for 15 yrs swinging hammers etc, it starts being detrimental as you get lots of forearm/bicep strains

This. Guy I know is competing in strongman and works in the piping industry (hahaha). Handling heavy tools all day long has given him very thick and calloused hands -- yet he now has to quit strongman because of nerve problems from all the strains he has gotten from work. Grip used to be his strongest asset, now it's what always lets him down. Sad to see.

Looking nice and wide there! Too bad this narrow 0.7 Heaths wide git is blocking the view of the river.
