If you are REALLY serious about forearm work, go to www.ironmind.com and get their Go-Really-Grip™ Machine
http://www6.mailordercentral.com/ir...ages/1242-F.JPG
It's plate loaded so you can put on 5 lbs or 500. I have an earlier version and it is hard to beat for strength or size.
If your on a budget at least pick up a set of their "captain of the crush" grippers http://www6.mailordercentral.com/ir...ages/1250-F.JPG Beware, the number 1 stops most people in their tracks. Most people should truly start with the trainer.
A balanced forearm routine should have you working on your crushing, as well as holding strength. Heavy deads take care or the static. If you are not deadlifting, or need straps to do them, do 3 sets of static holds, where you hold onto a pair of heavy dumbbells for 45-60 seconds until they fall from your hands. A couple of sets on the grip machine, or gripper, and then some reverse wrist curls, or use the wrist-roller. As hokey as it seems, a wrist roller done INTENSLY is damn good for forearm SIZE for many people.
Ever see a 600+ lb deadlifter with small forearms??
