Start doing dead lifts, works your entire posterior chain: glutes, hamstrings, calves, back as well as your forearms and grip. Lunges are also good for legs but dead lift and squat are the best.

I like wrist curls for forearms but IMO “farmer walks” are the best. Basically, pick a dumbbell weight which you can only lift for about 30 seconds and walk around with it. You should barely be able to get to 30 seconds, after you can do 30 seconds easily then lift heavier dumbbells.You get massive forearms as well as improve your grip. An improved grip helps all your lifts.

Can u plz explain Framer walks ??

Agree with the deadlift thing, it’s one of the “Big Three” of weight lifting exercises.

However, I’ve tried farmer walks and didn’t see much benefit from them. A better exercise to improve grip strength it to open the fingers during wrist curls, when you bring down the barbell/dumbbell and let the weight slip to your fingertips before bringing it back up.

Also, grippers work wonders!

From many friends i heard about Dead lifts but never tried it though…

@LondonsFinest

Squats are the king of any leg exercises. However you must have proper form to prevent injuries

Your forearms are getting worked out when you lift anything, especially when doing your biceps - simple barbell curls, or dumbbell curls.

Yeah ur right even when u do bench press ur forearms are getting worked out
