Ok. now that I figured out how to post a picture. Just haven't figured out how to type text with it as well. The picture is for Christian...being that he doesn't like numbers or measurements. ;-) I hope my 9 year old got the right angle to make the forearm look as big as possible! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

Christian,
You are training your forearms like an ironworker or rancher! Keep them strong ....who cares about size!

Ditto that ^^^^^^. I know a guy that doesn't even pull, that might have the largest forearms and wrists i have ever seen. I'll see if i can get a photo. He used to bull ride and ranch, so he is also naturally strong!!! About 5' 6' (maybe) 195+-, brick sh!t house!!!!!

Mat,
Started out with a lot of farm work as a kid. Bucking bales, digging ditches, changing sprinkler pipe. I'm just now starting to get back in shape, following the surgery.
I work the forearms for 1.5 to 2 hours each Friday with a front..back rotation.
Something like this:
Heavy wrist curls 3 sets reverse rope cable curls 3 sets DB wrist curls 3 sets reverse curls with bent bar 3 sets standing behind the back wrist curls 3 sets Hammer curls 3 sets MARV cross body curl 3 sets Standing wrist curls with rope 3 sets
I did used to wrestle a cow or two from time to time on the farm, when needed. ;-)

5'11" 163lbs and 1/8 an inch from having 16" forearms... No joke I don't do forearm work I just pull when I can, and swing a 10lb single hand sledge hammer all day at work. Steve does have my favorite forearms of all time for a puller. Just pure nasty size and he has no hair on them so it looks even crazier. HAHA ![](http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/5228/008qd6.th.jpg) P.S. I'm out of here in a few hours to go pull your nephew Steve. He is feeling pretty darn strong and seems very hungry. He's a great kid!

Wow!! Matl'e, I'm VERY impressed by your forearm. 163lbs? Darn, I've got 10lbs on you and 12" forearms (measuring with elbows straight). You're an inspiration!!
