Biggerfoot Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 In my Craig's List booty run today (700 lbs of plates, a few dumbbells, a new loading pin, etc.) a ForeArm Bar was included in the lot. I noticed some older posts did not care for it but did anyone ever try it? I currently due Heavy Hand wrist curls. My little garage is running out of room to hold my projects I keep picking up...it is going to be a while before I tackle the Roundheads.

Biggerfoot Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 I gave the forearm bar a tryout today and worked it in with my wrist roller, arms, and lever work. I did both the reverse and standard wrist curls. I had between 15-20 pounds and did 3 sets of each at 15-20 reps. I certainly feel it in the forearms. I do not have a Formulator or Pegasus to compare it to and only my homemade heavy handle bar and normal wrist curls. I will keep doing my heavy handle sets but the forearm bar is much easier to use for wrist curls than a barbell. Since I only paid a couple of bucks for it, it was well worth it. I will have to wait and see if it worth the $55 it sells for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesG Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Ive been curious how the forearm bar works. Seems like a pretty good deal compared to some of the other tools for sale. Keep us posted on how you like it. JP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
