Here are 3 forearm exercisers you’ll be guaranteed to love. These forearm exercisers will not only develop the shape and size of your forearms in a positive way, more importantly they will help build serious forearm and grip strength to help you succeed in whatever sport you take part in.
1. Marcy Wedge For Forearm and Wrist
This forearm exerciser is truly hardcore. It mimics the basic motion of the forearm, but with plenty of added resistance!
Not only is the Marcy Wedge great for building your forearms in no time, it is also excellent at rehabbing old injuries due to its stable range of motion.
2. Wrist Roller Forearm Exercise Bar
This old school forearm exerciser has truly stood the test of time. A boxer’s favourite, the wrist roller is a must for any serious athlete. This tool will not only build stronger forearms and solid wrists, it will have those veins popping out at the envy of all your friends.
3. IVANKO Super Hand Gripper
The Super Hand Gripper by Ivanko is the perfect complement to the Marcy Wedge and wrist roller. This hand and wrist exercising tool builds your forearms by forcing you to squeeze the handles until they are closed.
And this can be a lot more difficult than you may think as the springs are super resistant and when held in different positions, will literally turn the lactic acid on overdrive. Definitely not for the feint hearted!
So these are our 3 favorite forearm exercisers of 2011. Used individually they are all great, combine them and you’re in for a serious forearm building experience.
