    Full training routine for forearms and grip should include
    Category 1: Pulls / carrys. Forearms can get decent but suboptimal stimulus from isometric contraction during heavy pulling and carrying exercises, including pullups, rows, deadlifts, shrugs, farmer walks. If you want to get more forearm stimulus out of these movements you can 1) limit use of wrist straps; 2) use advanced grips (fat grips, pinch grips, rotating grips); and 3) combine multiple pull / carry exercises into supersets or circuits. One superset I like that creates great forearm burn is pullups and shrugs. But the main limitation of these movements is that they mostly involve isometric contraction of the forearm muscles. That is never going to be optimal for muscle growth.
    Category 2: Elbow flexion. Brachioradialis will get lots of stimulus from curls and pulls using neutral and probated grip. Best exercises: hammer curls, reverse curls, close grip pullups.
    Category 3: Wrist flexion/extension. Wrist curls and wrist extension exercises should be used to isolate forearm muscles. Best to perform with arms wresting on bench or table to get resistance across full range of motion. These exercises should make up most of your dedicated forearm training.
    Category 4: Grip. You should use squeeze exercises to isolate muscles of forearm and hand. Spring based hand grippers are very overrated because they have a resistance curve that heavily emphasizes the shortened position. The best option is some sort of plate loaded grip machine.
    Category 5: Wrist ulnar/radial deviation. You should include some isolation work for small muscles that laterally flex wrist.
    Category 6: Wrist pronation/supination. You should include some isolation work for muscles that rotate forearm (including biceps and Brachioradialis but also many smaller muscles like the pronation teres).

      Isometric contraction is never optimal for muscle growth of a specific muscle? Quite the contrary man. It is the #1 way to grow a specific muscle faster. What is your logic behind that statement?

      ​@@BoyBlessingI think you are confusing isolation and isometric's here, also pure isometric training usually leads to stagnant growth and strength gains after a few weeks from what I've read
