Actually if you sit often Infront of the phone it makes sense to train them. Look at something very near for some seconds, and then switch to something far away
@@thomas.thomas Also the tongue is overlooked, there's tongue exercises which can help for speech. As a musician I really love finger weights too, almost seems like a gag thing lol but they're so great. Really puts into perspective how lacking the ring finger is in dexterity when you do circles with it with weight, small things like tying your shoes become much easier and more comfortable to do, even if it was before. I would actually say it's great in combo with forearm/grip exercises, it's a lot like doing resistance band exercises to help the shoulder joints/tendons in particular, it will definitely help take your grip further and help prevent injury including repetitive stress injury from things like typing. Then again maybe jaw muscles for chewing which you don't want to overwork, but it can help improve the look of you jawline and especially when you're younger, it can help improve the bone density of the jaw. I'm trying to have things like dried papaya and jerky more.
That was a great video with just the right amount of technical detail and education on correct and incorrect form. Was super helpful to see the 'wrong' way to do an exercise. Thanks for putting the effort into creating high quality content Jeff.
This guy really knows his stuff. I’m one of the rare few that actually trains forearms at the gym. Personally, I’ve gotten my best results from doing an over under grip on heavy deadlifts.
@@batman-sr2px Other than deadlifts, I mostly did dumbbell wrist curls and reverse wrist curls. My secret is to *never* neglect reverse wrist curls like so many people do. Those reverse wrist curls will really make your arms look awesome, even when hanging loose.
Video summary 1. Reverse grip curls - use EZ bar, experiment with different wrist flexion, extension angles 2. Wrist roller - stand on height, keep arma close to body. 3. Towel barbell hold 4. Dumbbell wrist flexion extension - go light & 15-20 rep range 5. Plate pinch, gripper.
Things that have helped my forearms grow due to consistency of incorporating them into my routine: 1) doing the majority of my daily ab exercises from a hanging position 2) using an overhand grip on deadlift variations whenever possible.
Just found this video on my home page & I have to be honest here. I'm always looking for more info on how to better myself & my physical performance in life. This video is so detailed & thorough it's insane. I'm going to be checking out more of your work. Thank you Jeff
Jeff, really enjoy all your video series. One thing I haven't seen though, and maybe you could do a quick vid on sometime is gym accessories. Belts, wrist straps, footwear etc. At what point in your training journey should you consider using this stuff, the basics of how to use them, how they do what they do etc. For example, I see guys in my gym, they put their belt on in the locker room, and then they wear it for an entire hour while they're in the gym. They wear it for warm ups. their work sets, for 20 minutes while they talk up the girl by the water cooler...
@@bower350 I'm not too concerned about my core for big lifts. I'm married, have kids, have a great job that requires me to drive a bit so I don't want my back to hurt while I'm driving. I'm not much of a power lifter, so I'm content where I'm at as far as my physique goes and my core is relatively strong after decades in the gym. Appreciate the input though.
Little tip for the roller that I absolutely LOVE. Connect it to the cable machine instead of free weight, that allows you to take the tension off of biceps/shoulders and ALL the focus on forearm allowing a much better mind-muscle connection. It's just hard for me to have a strong mind-muscle connection with forearms when shoulders and biceps are also on fire from holding it up extended periods of time.
I never got much out of the reverse wrist curl and normal wrist curl, had weak and small forearms regardless of my intent to get them bigger. Started indoor climbing and they exploded; the variety aspect of hitting them from a thousand different angles and with a constant difference in load depending on how the body is positioned on the wall really leads to an overall development of the forearm musculature in a way that traditional lifting implements really can’t. In the same way calves respond well to constant use and variety, forearms seem to function in a similar fashion. My two cents anyways on the subject.
Probably because of those mechanics in the video, with climbing you do a lot of the right rotation to get the biggest muscle, then of course all the grips
Hi Jeff, love your videos, been a fan for years. As always, you're making some excellent points, and the quality is top-notch. I would just like to add that punching the heavy bag is also an amazing way to develop your forearms, especially the flexors and brachioradialis muscles - albeit not every gym has boxing bags, nor does everyone know how to hit properly and safely. I'm not sure what processes are involved, but I do know that nothing makes my forearms as sore as a couple of rounds of heavy bag work, with adequate power and intensity. Over the years, I've been able to completely eliminate direct forearm work in the gym because of this. Anyway, keep up the amazing work!
I have a form of neuropathy that affects my extremities and those exercises that target grip and the wrists and forearms are really helpful. Thank you.
Is your condition Functional Neuropathic Disorder ? I'm roommates with a lady that has this & it's a physical confidence wrecker with anxiety ridden spells that are periodic. At least some of source problem is related to intense internalized trauma overloading neural pathways & upsetting the natural balance of materials involved in synaptic function. Walking back & forth & a gripping motion of the hands helps when in an episode. Pls let me know if you think it's what your dealing with as it's a more recent diagnoses & alot of ppl don't respect it as they do more obvious physical injury. I'd like to help her at least with knowledge &/or management.
Everyone always says you don't need to train forearms because they are worked during other lifts but I've always had incredibly weak hands and skinny forearms no matter how strong the rest of my muscles are, thanks for the video.
I worked out my forearms for arm wrestling damn near 20 years ago and they've stayed with me the whole time when I slack. All I used to do were the normal curls with my either my arms on my lap or standing straight up. We also played with a spinner ball that you wind up and it puts good tension on your forearm (both sides) as you rotate it in circles, really handy workout gadget.
Thank you. I recently had a serious surgery and lost ALL of my core. I'm a machinist. hope these arm exercises will let me get back to work as soon as possible.
This guy is fantastic!! Been awhile since I have come across someone so articulate and adept at health and fitness. This is the first vid of his I've seen and I'm an instant subscriber! Can't wait to see more gonna learn a lot from these videos I can tell already. 💯
I love that you recommended standing on a box for the wrist roller to reach the floor because I imagined trying the movement and remembered I'm almost a foot taller than you 😅😭 2:49
@@JeffNippard Even so, by increasing the height from the ground will soon make many of us the perfect match to lower a bucket into a well and rising it full of water. :) Haha !
I've only been lifting 5 weeks but one of the first visual changes to my body has been this brachioradialus muscle on my forearm and it was unexpected and very motivating. You start lifting for the first time and think about potential biceps/triceps gains or your chest but I have always been selfconscious about my skinny forearms (and wrists) so I'm loving this change in my body. I'm pretty sure the exercise which has stimulated them most has been pull ups and even more so the slow, negative pull ups. My forearms are just on fire more than any other muscle in my workouts. It's now wider than my elbow which was something I never really considered before but I now have a small target of no longer being too ashamed to roll up sleeves when wearing long-sleeved shirts and I think I'll get there in a few more months.
As I write this, I’m currently in physical therapy for bicep tendonitis. At home I don’t have any materials to help me recover other than frozen food. I ordered this packet of ruclips.net/user/postUgkx010hhy8hzepHnne4VtzOtUictDZeYMTF so that I may heal faster. They are great! Good grip movements, steady and hard resistant levels, and fun! Thank you!
The best way to do the wrist roller is by wrapping a resistance band around the thick end of an Olympic bar placed at sqaut height in a rack..works great and no shoulder fatigue as the bar is supported by the rack. You can really load up and hammer away. Also another awesome method which I think Jeff missed out is levering a sledgehammer
Totally with the hammer, I got big wrists just from handling cast iron skillets every day. Full of food there's some serious wrist tension there. Imagine if you just did that intentionally and til near failure
Those details about the different muscle activation at different joint angles is so overlooked by a lot of people and one of my favorite things about your videos in particular. Its really overlooked by a lot of people but so valuable when trying to train specific muscles.
Hey Jeffrey Nipples, I recommend a behind the back preacher wrist curl variation. This allows for maximal stretch while keeping the wrists internally rotated. No wrist discomfort at all. Give it a try, it's remarkable.
Jeff: Tells me I should do some wrist rollers. And instead of increasing weight I should stand somewhere higher. Me: Does wrist rollers on top of a table Me: Does wrist rollers on top of a fridge Me: Does wrist rollers on top of my house Me: Does wrist rollers while on my girls shoulders Me: Climbs Mount Everest so i Can do wrist rollers
I didn't mind basic training. It taught me that something that seems impossible at start can be achieved. Beginners start with 25 reps keep on pushing!
I use to watch some of your workout videos(besides your movies too, lol)You had a amazing techniques when you was Mr.O. now when I do my shoulder front raises,do I do half raises & full front raises,because of your videos..Thank you Mt , former California Governor/ Olympia Schwarzenegger
@2:35 Or, if your not a shorty, you don't need the box for the wrist roller. Love your stuff Jeff. I enjoy your academic approach while also considering Anecdotal and personal experience, which is something no study can calculate. @5:45 was that sidewalk chalk!
I would highly recommend a Senshi Handgrip machine along with Dynamic Suitcases hold + Reverse curl and wrist curls performed behind your back. I do these along with farmers carry for a km circa. I've have around 17 inches lower arms. The fingers get so strong from Senshi machine. Completely underrated. I use to train my forearms 90 minutes at least doing the last 12 years of my 27 years weight regiment. I train them just each second day now. You get a feeling from a grip machine that goes into the fingers. No beast grip or wrist curl or reverse curl or crunch mechanism can support those muscles in my head. I feel lately like my fingers are like stone and I can hold another person with my long finger on my left hand while they pull with whole hand/hands and arm/arms and I don't move. My hands have become so much stronger from this hand grip machine (Some say Bruce Lee put his name to) Senshi (its called) though, you can get some other versions, but they are rare with the standard plates. Its working real good. I use like 45 pounds each hand for 40-25 reps in many sets up to 75 pounds with 10/20 reps for a set each hand with weights loaded on the machine. Go sometimes for 2 hands also and doing em sideways as well. You can also work certain fingers with lower weight or use thumbs to make the retraction instead of just fingers and thumb. Anyhow, Trying not to go to technically here. I trained my whole life and I'm 41 years old 6+ feet/235 lbs. I'm strong. Have 3 dislocated bones on my hands and fingers. Ripped my right hand off 75 % once in an accident. Took me years to use it again after operation+ :( So having strong hands despite my pain and whatnot is feeding this obsession. Think about getting a handgrip machine if you want to have fingers like strong claws. I noticed that all my forearm training for the last 12 years only targets my already strong wrists and forearms. But didn't make my fingers that pumped. I received my machine last month so it's fairly new and I can say with confidence it`s really surprised me when doing all sorts of grip training normally.
Hey Jeff quick question, i'd love to see a vid on how you have progressed over the past 6 months or year or so, how do you as an advanced gainer set challenging goals and work toward them?
train them. don’t make the same mistake I did. I lacked forearm strength and paid the price with an injury during my back day. Weak forearm = weak back
Outstanding tutorial video. With clear instructions and exceptional video shooting of different angles. Top notch quality!! Immediately hitting that sub button.
@Michael W By using one hand, palm more than the other since everyone has a dominating hand with which we grip more, have more precision, more accuracy, hit harder, throw further, hold longer etc.
6:20 I`d like to say that I fixed my golfer`s elbow in 2 days with that exercise alone. Had it for months, even anti-inflamatories didnt help if I were to hit the gym despite it.
Heavy farmers walk is probably my favorite exercise for grip strength and and grip endurance, mostly because its a fun challenge, increasing weight and distance
The best forearm movements hands down is the five finger penial jerk. Make sure to get even sets and reps. At first you might not be able to make it to the second set. Due to premature seminal expulsion. But hang in there. Don't feel bad that your longevity isn't as good as it was when you were a teen.. It takes practice. And one last tip. Don't listen to the myth that you'll go blind. My next tip is how to induce hypertrophy with a unopened gallon of paint and some paracord. Stay tuned and stay hard.....
I'm going to add the rice bucket method, too. Get a gallon bucket and a big bag of cheap rice. Enough to fully sink your hands into with the fingers opened. You can do a bunch of extra exercises that include things like opening your fingers against resistance, popular with climbers. There are a few really good videos that explain all of the different exercises. Body builders tend to leave out a lot of the optional extra exercises. I'm just finishing PT for my forearms so I'm pretty stoked.
I have large triceps and puny, under-developed fore arms, especially the dorsal muscles. Biceps are unimpressive, too. It looks rather ridiculous. I really appreciate this video
preacher bench reverse barbell curls with the short bar. i experimented with these a few weeks ago when the gym was packed and i couldn't justify doing a standing reverse curl with the barbells that were all in use. Dear god. it's my new favorite thing. It's an awkward setup with grip and elbows the first time, but i started with just the bar on my first two sets and threw on 5's for the last. About 4 weeks later and i absolutely look forward to them. Hit them crisp, slow, and perfect form for 6-8 and woo boy. Can't recommend them enough for a second to last movement.

*jeff is the type guy to help you make gains meanwhile he’s making 2x the gains for it*
By far the best forearm video I've ever seen. Thanks!
Hit the like button so hard got some forearm recruitment out of it
As I write this, I’m currently in physical therapy for bicep tendonitis. At home I don’t have any materials to help me recover other than frozen food. I ordered this packet of ruclips.net/user/postUgkx010hhy8hzepHnne4VtzOtUictDZeYMTF so that I may heal faster. They are great! Good grip movements, steady and hard resistant levels, and fun! Thank you!
Best forearm training video in RUclips
The best way to do the wrist roller is by wrapping a resistance band around the thick end of an Olympic bar placed at sqaut height in a rack..works great and no shoulder fatigue as the bar is supported by the rack. You can really load up and hammer away. Also another awesome method which I think Jeff missed out is levering a sledgehammer
Totally with the hammer, I got big wrists just from handling cast iron skillets every day. Full of food there's some serious wrist tension there. Imagine if you just did that intentionally and til near failure
Those details about the different muscle activation at different joint angles is so overlooked by a lot of people and one of my favorite things about your videos in particular. Its really overlooked by a lot of people but so valuable when trying to train specific muscles.
which of these exercises have you found the most beneficial to adding size?
Hey Jeffrey Nipples,
I recommend a behind the back preacher wrist curl variation.
This allows for maximal stretch while keeping the wrists internally rotated. No wrist discomfort at all.
Give it a try, it's remarkable.
I just bought the program, I’m stoked to see my level up in a few weeks!
6:00 Thoughts on the "Heavy Grips" hand grippers? The ones that go up to 300+ lbs of pressure?
All the wanted to know in a few seconds. Pure gold, man. Thank you.
Jeff: Tells me I should do some wrist rollers. And instead of increasing weight I should stand somewhere higher.
Me: Does wrist rollers on top of a table
Me: Does wrist rollers on top of a fridge
Me: Does wrist rollers on top of my house
Me: Does wrist rollers while on my girls shoulders
Me: Climbs Mount Everest so i Can do wrist rollers
Luigi lol

You have a Dutch girl or what?
I didn't mind basic training. It taught me that something that seems impossible at start can be achieved. Beginners start with 25 reps keep on pushing!
I use to watch some of your workout videos(besides your movies too, lol)You had a amazing techniques when you was Mr.O. now when I do my shoulder front raises,do I do half raises & full front raises,because of your videos..Thank you Mt , former California Governor/ Olympia Schwarzenegger
I need this so I can look like popeye
@2:35 Or, if your not a shorty, you don't need the box for the wrist roller. Love your stuff Jeff. I enjoy your academic approach while also considering Anecdotal and personal experience, which is something no study can calculate.
@5:45 was that sidewalk chalk!

I would highly recommend a Senshi Handgrip machine along with Dynamic Suitcases hold + Reverse curl and wrist curls performed behind your back. I do these along with farmers carry for a km circa. I've have around 17 inches lower arms. The fingers get so strong from Senshi machine. Completely underrated. I use to train my forearms 90 minutes at least doing the last 12 years of my 27 years weight regiment. I train them just each second day now. You get a feeling from a grip machine that goes into the fingers. No beast grip or wrist curl or reverse curl or crunch mechanism can support those muscles in my head. I feel lately like my fingers are like stone and I can hold another person with my long finger on my left hand while they pull with whole hand/hands and arm/arms and I don't move. My hands have become so much stronger from this hand grip machine (Some say Bruce Lee put his name to) Senshi (its called) though, you can get some other versions, but they are rare with the standard plates. Its working real good. I use like 45 pounds each hand for 40-25 reps in many sets up to 75 pounds with 10/20 reps for a set each hand with weights loaded on the machine. Go sometimes for 2 hands also and doing em sideways as well. You can also work certain fingers with lower weight or use thumbs to make the retraction instead of just fingers and thumb. Anyhow, Trying not to go to technically here. I trained my whole life and I'm 41 years old 6+ feet/235 lbs. I'm strong. Have 3 dislocated bones on my hands and fingers. Ripped my right hand off 75 % once in an accident. Took me years to use it again after operation+ :( So having strong hands despite my pain and whatnot is feeding this obsession. Think about getting a handgrip machine if you want to have fingers like strong claws. I noticed that all my forearm training for the last 12 years only targets my already strong wrists and forearms. But didn't make my fingers that pumped. I received my machine last month so it's fairly new and I can say with confidence it`s really surprised me when doing all sorts of grip training normally.
When I heard towel row, I immediately thought of Mike Chang.
I'm so grateful to the existence of ur chanelle...I kinda don't believe it actually does😂😂
Hey Jeff quick question, i'd love to see a vid on how you have progressed over the past 6 months or year or so, how do you as an advanced gainer set challenging goals and work toward them?
I absolutly love this video
Yes I'm a woman and I want to make my forearms stronger
I will incorporate this in my training
Oh damn, let's gooooo. Start the day with some knowledge gains.
Love your lessons thank you Jeff. Always the most humble, expert knowledge shared . 🤙🏽
if i dont do forearm workouts, will they still grow if im training the rest of my arms? or is it important to focus on forearms too
train them. don’t make the same mistake I did. I lacked forearm strength and paid the price with an injury during my back day. Weak forearm = weak back
Outstanding tutorial video. With clear instructions and exceptional video shooting of different angles. Top notch quality!! Immediately hitting that sub button.
"Correcting left to right grip imbalances"
I wonder how this occurs...
@Michael W
By using one hand, palm more than the other since everyone has a dominating hand with which we grip more, have more precision, more accuracy, hit harder, throw further, hold longer etc.
Feezwa you complete dunce he’s talking about masterbation

I`d like to say that I fixed my golfer`s elbow in 2 days with that exercise alone.
Had it for months, even anti-inflamatories didnt help if I were to hit the gym despite it.
how many times per week and how many reps did you do
@@batman-sr2px 4 sets of 20 but this depends on the severity of your problem and the weight you use
Is this patched yet
ill check give me a little while

Heavy farmers walk is probably my favorite exercise for grip strength and and grip endurance, mostly because its a fun challenge, increasing weight and distance
Bro Jeff never makes me feel disappointed with his exercise ahah LoL
Amazing video! Thank you for creating such a high quality and easy to consume, no nonsense video!
The best forearm movements hands down is the five finger penial jerk. Make sure to get even sets and reps. At first you might not be able to make it to the second set. Due to premature seminal expulsion. But hang in there. Don't feel bad that your longevity isn't as good as it was when you were a teen.. It takes practice. And one last tip. Don't listen to the myth that you'll go blind. My next tip is how to induce hypertrophy with a unopened gallon of paint and some paracord. Stay tuned and stay hard.....
Yes gotta stay hard
Holly Shit 😂
Dumb
I'm going to add the rice bucket method, too. Get a gallon bucket and a big bag of cheap rice. Enough to fully sink your hands into with the fingers opened. You can do a bunch of extra exercises that include things like opening your fingers against resistance, popular with climbers. There are a few really good videos that explain all of the different exercises. Body builders tend to leave out a lot of the optional extra exercises.
I'm just finishing PT for my forearms so I'm pretty stoked.
I feel forearm size largely correlated to joint size, in particular wrist size :(
I have large triceps and puny, under-developed fore arms, especially the dorsal muscles. Biceps are unimpressive, too. It looks rather ridiculous. I really appreciate this video
Will this increase my right hand stamina? Asking for a friend.
Dude, you are one of the best. Always really good videos.
So many people don’t know how train forearms properly! I’ll be posting fitness/soccer videos weekly!
This is important for ppl who are on the pc all day long typing. Also, doing hand stretches afterwards.
I’m just doing this because I play volleyball lmao
Best training channel ever!
how to build huge forearms : Be short
I'm short and my forearms are small.
preacher bench reverse barbell curls with the short bar. i experimented with these a few weeks ago when the gym was packed and i couldn't justify doing a standing reverse curl with the barbells that were all in use. Dear god. it's my new favorite thing. It's an awkward setup with grip and elbows the first time, but i started with just the bar on my first two sets and threw on 5's for the last. About 4 weeks later and i absolutely look forward to them. Hit them crisp, slow, and perfect form for 6-8 and woo boy. Can't recommend them enough for a second to last movement.
