Author Topic: My Forearms are shrinking !!! (Read 9374 times)

Pet shop boys · « **on:** February 08, 2016, 05:20:33 AM »

My forearms were one of my strongest body part, to the point I have never trained them

Ok , for the past 6 years they've been shrinking! I noticed though about 2 years ago, I'm 42 so I don't expect to b as big as I was in my 20's, but my biceps triceps are still there (thank God)

I've notice some champs like Jay Cutler and Branch are some of the bodybuilders whose forearms have been getting smaller also...
Maybe Kai Greeen too ?

I have not started training forearms yet, but .....will that even help ?

Is it Muscle wasting ?
Has anyone experience something similar ?

WoooSHHH BE YE KE

Just do hammer curls, you will get through this I believe in you.

Spinal compression? But your arms are still there. Hmmm

I've experienced this also, but in my biceps too... I don't have the same pop in my arms when I train anymore, just a dull pump, whereas it used to be pop out the skin/battery acid type feeling... I'm 35 so I'm experiencing it earlier than you

Friday I ate at around 4 pm then at 6 pm started drinking , then went to a party around 9pm and drank till about 3 am so next time I ate was saturday at around 11 am ....

Last night was smoking a cigar and drank a bottle of wine and while inhaling THE CIGAR ; a friend took a picture, and my forearm just looks painful to watch ...not saying that has anything to do with my Forearms wasting away but wanted to throw that there too .

Inevitable w most of us. I work a job where I am yanking, pulling and pushing all day long. I think I've suffered a lot of micro trauma plus two bulged discs in my neck doesn't help. Then some nerve damage due to a botch shoulder surgery in my left.

But yea. It sux. Age. My forearms start way higher than they used to and the gap between my elbow and triceps has gotten bigger. I look at pix from just 10 years ago and what a difference. We'll all be skeletons one day anyway I guess. I'll be 52 in a couple mos. hope that helps.

This. Wrist curls are good too, but I've also gotten a ton out of years of hammers

Hammers hurt my elbows bad after a few weeks.

You're not experiencing it earlier than than the OP considering he said he started noticing this 6 years ago.

You say you never train them. Do you wear wrist straps as well? Try training them.

Alternate Masturbation Curls.

Often caused by mild spinal stenosis.

Most seem to get some sort of C4/C5 issue and then forearms, hands, and triceps can go.

Often just a unilateral problem.

Better this than heart disease!
