Forearms

| back to ARMS page |

The Forearms help with several functions. They flex and extend the wrists, which is the most important function but they also contract systematically with the muscles in the hand to assist in gripping heavy objects (try rotating your wrist along with open and closing your hands).

Strengthening each aspect of the arms will help in exercises for other sections of the body and ultimately enable lifting more weight. Do not be fixated in working on just one component of the arm unless it is actually weak or else you are minimizing your potential.
