Some old bodybuilding courses discouraged direct forearm work so as not to make the upper arms look less impressive.

I donīt think they needed it as these old timers did heavy basic lifts without straps.
itīs a bit like ab training... maybe some direct work before a contest but not important if doing indirect training such as tricep pushdowns, infact Steve reeves mentioned this in his Book.

Vince Gironda might be different as he did train Forearms on his prodigies...Zottman curls is an example.
Mohamed Makkawy had huge lower arms

lol @ the delusional fucks saying "eh he looks all torn and ugly lookin" when they're sitting there weighing a skinny-fat 185lbs. MAYBE with a couple pictures on their wall of that one time they were in shape 30yrs ago.

bitter hasbeen/neverwas critics talking shit about Dorian, who looks good at 62. considering he's been smoking weed, eating mushrooms, drinking ayahuasca, playing touch-butt in the park for the last 20yrs

Who are these "delusional fucks" - almost everyone in this thread was being positive about Dorian.
