I am tall with pretty much no forearms, but why would anyone pretend that having no forearms is cool? Of course big forearms are cool! I haven't found mine grow much, but some guys do have big-ass forearms, tree-surgeons, gymnasts, some squash players, sh!t like that.

i do 50 bodyweight squats every 3rd night. might not sound impressive, but its damn hard when you weight 270lbs +

i've also did hiit squats using a olympic bar, as many squats as i can for 20 secs, 10 secs rest etc.

the hiit feels worse

I would think if your forearms are lagging you could improve upon them with little worry of them becoming too thick.

Glad to hear you are contributing to society in some way or form with taxes, national insurance etc. You will no doubt be costing the NHS 100s of 1000s in terms of cost and care and support following your imminent heart attacks.

I've been working longer and paying more taxes than you harry potter.

Was only unemployed because i chose to go and do a teaching degree, my 2nd degree, unfortunately the credit crunch hit and jobs dried up.

What do you do again beanpole? a cashier in a pharmacy ?

shit happens, I'm not the only one who has been unemployed.

oh and good Christian values harry, you are on here boasting about how you give to charity etc etc yet you slag me for hitting a bad patch

no wonder you're single you specky geek - you are a negative person, and got what you deserved when the bodybuilder you exposed here dealt with you.

What do you guys think about higher rep traps versus low rep heavy weight?

heavy ass weights and lower reps, 6-8 sometimes 10 on traps.

I've noticed some improvements doing seated DB shrugs. Do 8-10 heavy, then grab a lighter pair of DB's and bang out as many as you can, holding at the top for 2 seconds or so.

Yeah, I'm going for the "no-neck" look or as close as possible. They are stubborn as hell.

barbell shrugs to the front is the only thing that's ever worked for me, that and deadlifts.

no 1-2 rep one leg squats are more than enough done with perfect form. If you need to go higher or use weights you probably are cheating.
