What do you do for forearms, /fit/?
I recently added 3x10 sets of hammer curls and 3 sets of wrist roller (roll it up backward with narrow grip, roll it down, roll it up forward with close grip, roll it down) to the end of my pull days.
Questions: Is there any different between rolling backward and rolling forward? With a narrow or a close grip? My gym has a wrist roller attached to some kind of ladder, which is about chest high. Would it be preferable to use a wrist roller that isn't attached to anything so you have to lift it up yourself? Also it's really burning my hands when I roll it down, any ways to avoid that?

On my last rep of my last set of deadlifts I just hold the bar as long as I can. Same idea with pull ups and chins.

I've been doing that to improve grip strength as well, but I just wanna make the fuckers grow

Doing overhand barbell compounds has not only made my grip completely based (500lb deadlift double overhand), my forearms are 14.5" now and vascular as fuck. A responsible recommendation that I don't currently do is work your extensors to help avoid tendonitis
Farmer's walks are unnecessary unless you're training strongman, grippers are completely unnecessary, and the wrist bending shit you're doing now is not only unnecessary but also potentially harmful
Hang cleans
Hang snatches
Deadlift

How does OHP work your forearm?

Overhead stabilising works the forearms alot believe it or not

It's not called "Ohp" or "OHP"
The lift is called The Press.

or scoobypress if you do it with dumbbells
>>34984930
Im used to ohp because powerlifters call benchpressing the press
And we oly ohp is press
Just say ohp to avoid confusion
>>34984937
Is there any other way to do The Press?
With barbells its just OHP.
