hudsonnoah Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 (edited) I call it Chuck Sipes Style Dumbell Levering Wrist Circles (long name ik) Its what u imagine Yo go off a bench or bed, wrist just by the end and hold the dumbell on one side (preferably with thicker grip using towel) and you lurch down then shift to the side then put yo arm on your other arm to restrict blood flow like in occlusion training like Chuck Sipes Wrist Curl, then you do a controlled wrist circle movement trying to get as much ROM as possible tryna hang low as much as possible, I do this like 3x3, 2x a week along with explosive far-grip towel pullups (just lettin go for a bit and going fast as possible) should be good for my small af wrists and forearms What do you guys think about this, any tips n tricks?

king crusher Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Sounds like an injury waiting to happen especially if you already have small wrists. Just do wrist curls, hammer curls, wrist roller type stuff etc. you will be on your way. Any circular motion with weight is just way more risk vs reward than I’d ever do. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still laugh at that. you could do those pushups up on your fingers with them kind of out in front of you the name escapes me but those would built wrist strength among other areas. You could buy a cheap wrist roller for probably 10 bucks and tie rocks or old rusty weight plates off marketplace or whatever and get a great wrist and forearm workout. Heck, you could make a wrist roller for dirt cheap with a wooden dowel and rope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matek Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) 42 minutes ago, hudsonnoah said: Problem is I dont have enough weight for heavy wrist curls im like poor asf Buy a thick resistance band and a rolling pin. 1. Loop the band around the middle part of the rolling pin. Make sure both "ends" are about the same length. 2. Grab the rolling pin palms facing down. If sitting, step in the loops and extend your leg(s). If standing, just step in the loops and stand straight. 3. Wrist curl. You can do both wrist curls and reverse wrist curls this way (palms facing down both cases). Because the band is from rubber, the friction under tension will be high; the rolling pin won't roll (at least not a lot), it will stay in place and move with the band.

Heck, you could make a wrist roller for dirt cheap with a wooden dowel and rope I actually do fingertip pushups but only when I do reps its like alternating so I'll switch between fingers, wrists, knuckles and this in like a pseudo-maltese position from divebomber sorta thing except I dont do the stretch I keep it to like good form pushups cuz thats harder, but fingertips not good for you you gotta get strong in them so you can do the Claw Variant where yo fingers bend its way harder legit but way safer for joints I could do 60 fingertips but only like 10 Claw, if you wonderin why I make it so complicated with bodyweight its cuz I wanna minimize the amount of weight I gotta add yknow and even dem cheap rusty weights be expensive to me and my only expenses is MILK LUL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the cheapest backpack from a second hand shop, and put rocks or whatever inside that makes it heavy. Pullups will be much harder in every aspect. Grippers are not a good way to test general grip strength, it's just one, very small aspect of grip. Also, the fact that you can close a "40kg" gripper doesn't mean your crush strength is 40kg. Look up what is "RGC rating" in this forum, if you're interested. Edited February 9 by matek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingertip push ups will only get you so far... Look up pull up variations, towels, gis, get a 10lbs sledge and find a few rocks of various sizes.
