In the December ’04 Critical Mass I outlined how to build forearm mass; however that was before I discovered a new bar that Jonathan
Lawson and I have been using in our workouts. It’s called the Forearm Bar and it was sent to us by Monster Barbell Co.
It’s a
uniquely angled short bar, shaped like a wide V, with a weight sleeve in the middle so you can add barbell plates.
You stand gripping the bar at arm’s length and do wrist curls, reverse wrist curls and extensor wrist curls over the full
range. Jonathan and I have been using it along with X Reps in our forearm routine, and we’ve gotten some wild new detail in
our lower arms, not to mention strength and vascularty.
The Unique shape of the bar enables you to do full-range wrist
curls and reverse wrist curls while standing allowing for dramatically increased forearm muscle activation.
