Best Forearms Exercises

The forearm muscles control grip strength, wrist flexion, and wrist extension. Strong forearms improve performance on every pulling exercise and are essential for deadlifts, rows, and carries.

The forearm contains over 20 muscles divided into anterior (flexor) and posterior (extensor) compartments. Key muscles include the brachioradialis, flexor carpi radialis, and extensor carpi ulnaris. These muscles control wrist and finger movements.
