Climbers Grip Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 I know wrist roller work and farmers walks and deadlift 'holds' all hit the forearms pretty hard. My question is would this be to much for the forearms... Monday-Wrist roller-2 warm up sets, 2-3 sets to failure Tuesday- Farmers walks- 2 warm up walks, then 2 sets of heavy walks till failure Wednesday- rest Thursday- Same as monday Friday- Deadlift holds- 2 warm ups, 2-3 heavy holds till failure Rest all weekend Hows this sound? Too much? Also, if I just wanted to concentrate on wrist roller work, would M-W-F, 2 warm up sets and 2 sets to failure, be okay? Thanks for any help.

Guest David Fralick Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 (edited) To find out if its too much for you all you have to do is try it. You will soon know if it is too much or not. If it is too much cut back a bit and try agin. No one can realy tell you if its too much for you or not, all thay can say is its too much for them. (Edit... Just remember most grip masters follow there own training program) Edited September 11, 2003 by David Fralick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austinslater Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 The m,w,f for the wrist roller should be fine. I would build up to more volume though when possible. IF your after size add in some high rep db wrist curls, levering and plate wrist curls. Austin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austinslater Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 just preference for me and I can use more weight. But both will work fine and I would recomend using both in your program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the swiss Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 when do you climb, in that program? when I climb, the rest of my training goes slightly down. overtraining is easy. do you boulder or prefer routes? david Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Climbers Grip Posted September 13, 2003 Author Share Posted September 13, 2003 LOVE to boulder, most of my climbing is routes. Dont get to climb as much as I used to, so I wouldn't worry about throwing that into the training. When I do climb, it'll knock off 2 workout days in the week.
