And the reason that we all have weak hands and forearms is that standard barbells, dumbbells and chin-up bars are only approximately 1 inch in diameter and therefore SO FRICKIN’ EASY TO GRIP! I mean they are literally made to be easy to grip so your hands and forearms do not get trained! Thick grip training blasts this weakness out of the water!
Fat grips are insane, I just finished my 1st workout with them and I am amazed; seriously. I train forearms/grip strength every arm day and so I was skeptical as to how hard it would really be to use these on bar/ dumbell applications. It KICKED my ---.
Fat grip training is often recommended by Charles Poliquin and Ian King. Training with fat equipment can help you build your forearms, improve your grip strength, and provide new growth-producing stimuli.
If you're a bodybuilder or just an exercise enthusiast looking to get bigger arms, try doing biceps curls with a fat bar. These will have your forearms pumped and ready to explode after a few sets.
Ja, man bør jo nok hellere lytte til jer, det tager jo netop underarmene ud af øvelsen at have et tykkere greb, efter som i mener man ikke behøver at lukke sine hænder eller spænde i dem (den hænger jo åbenbart bare fast i hånden, selv i bundpositionen af en curl-udførelse).
