Wow how the times have changed. I am a 50-year-old man now and when I started lifting weights in 1988 all we had then was a magazine called powerlifting USA. If we wanted to learn how to lift weights maybe something would be in that magazine? Fast forward all these years later and look at this. Someone like Mike giving us all this free information. It’s really pretty awesome 👏🏻

Gotta get your forearms sized up before the season starts in Nov.

In defense of the tibialis anterior, it can help with shin splints and be beneficial for runners. Probably similar to curls for your bench press and elbow health.

Of course we're all involuntary celibate, that's why we're subscribed. Now give us the forearm plan Dr. Mike

Thank you my favorite Jewish Beluga Goblin 👍

I did not watch the video yet but I can already say:

The amount of masturbation jokes will be insane

I've changed to treating my forearms like the rest of my muscles. I've got about 3 exercises I do on the day I do arms and weave them in, so they get direct work twice a week. About 3 months in has absolutely changed them. They're about 10% larger, look really good with my physique, and best of all my grip strength is becoming less a weak point, which is why I started in the first place. Hands are meatier too. My honest assessment is that if you're not doing forearm training because they get used a lot, it's like not doing shoulder work because you bench press and dead lift/row. Direct work is essential if you want something truly strong.

I had a friend who unexpectedly passed away recently.  He had Popeye Arms! He gave me this hack with Barbell curls (or any curl) where on the negative you let the bar roll to your fingertips, then squeeze and curl. This way you hit both - forearms and Bi's.  It works.

I have a strong opinion that having large brachioradialis, tibialis, and neck muscles can make a significant difference in one’s physique. I hope there is an option for those in your app.

This is kinda crazy. I was literally just looking for videos of good forearm exercises for forearm growth and now I don’t need to because your boy Mike got me!

Do that tibialis anterior guide. And if you cannot bring yourself to, a completely serious and thorough video on the topic would be great for April 1st

Versa Grips sponsors them now. 😂

While Mike is right about me being involuntarily celibate, I still think training the tibialis can help put a little bit of size on your lower leg.

Love your guys release schedule, get back from the gym and there’s a new vid that’s just been posted. Watching helps me get down my main protein meal grind

I’ve spent years chasing answers in documentaries, podcasts, even ancient texts—and none of it hit me the way The Obscured Principles book by Dorian Caine did. It’s like it was written for the few who are ready to break the illusion and remember who they really are.

You literally read my mind Mike, this is actually exactly what I was thinking about today and wanted to research, so thank you for uploading this video

Finally! An answer to my uneven baby forearms. Thanks Dr.Mike!

Actually I warm up with traps... I super set barbell shrugs and weighted hanging scapula depressions for high reps with straps of course. 3 sets of 20-30 reps. By the time you are repping two-three times body weight you'll have some decent over head Mobility and some meaty upper/lower traps, stratus anterior, and everything that keeps your arms from being ripped out of their sockets. My entire back, chest, rotator cuffs, delts, arms, and core are pretty pumped and warmed up with minimal fatigue.

Watched one of these specialization videos a while ago and have been specializing both my triceps and biceps in my training and have seen amazing results!

Don't forget about the brachioradialis, which adds a lot of the mass to the back of the forearm. Grow this muscle with hammer curl and reverse curl variations.
