I tried using one of these (very hard to squeeze, currently doing 70 lbs pressure) i expected my forearms to be sore the next day, but they weren't. Am i doing something wrong or are these a meme?

why would your forearms hurt.. you want forearms you do wrist curls and shit like that, your grip strength uses more in your hand then anything. Your grip gets used all day long just like your calf muscles... you really gotta over work them to feel anything and get them to respond.
Brody Harris
weighted pull ups, fuck all that other meme shit
Caleb Morales
do the 150 lbs instead

>thinks crushing grip strength will cause hypertrophy in forearms
This board I swear. Farmer walks, wrist rollers, axle bar curls. You fucking new fags are atrocious when will the first week of February be here.
Matthew Parker
will you look like a retard if you do farmer walks in the gym?

You have to post this thread every day to feel the effects of it
Justin Cruz
Yes, I get weird looks from normies but approving head nodding from lifters
Grayson Turner
Get fat gripz
Levi Taylor
Who cares? It's a gym, people go there to train, and that is a very effective way of training.
Get some heavy shit in your hands and start walking. I mean, your friend.
Evan Bennett
I do, even PTs stare at me like I'm a retard or something. I don't care though, I do Athlean X's forearm 6-minute workouts at the end of my pull days.
Juan Evans
...before or after your facepulls?
Levi Williams
Do the forearms get enough with deadlifts, shrugs, and general lifts?

Get some captains of crush, 70lbs of pressure ain't shit
You want at least 130lbs
Jordan Clark
I actually have my captains of crush grips on my desk at all times. If I get mad horny and angry like I do looking at pic related, I use them as stress relief. Since they're accessible, I end up doing like 100-200 reps a day.
I'm up to 8 reps at 280lbs. I can crack a walnut in my hand.

Put one side into the meat between thumb and index. Think about squeezing your fingers down and dont pull the thumb towards them. Remember, youre not actually gripping a bar, try not to use the thumb. The finger grip mucles are in the forearm.

The gym secretary says i'm doing a runway show. I tell him to tune in every mondaay and Thursday. After that, I try some cheeky fashion poses
