How to make your arms thicker

We need to exercise regularly in our lives. There are many ways to exercise, sports is one of them, and there are many ways to exercise. Some people hope to exercise their forearms and make them thicker. However, there are many ways to practice to make your forearms thicker, and you should choose the best one that suits you. So how do you get thicker forearms?

In fact, although we don't specifically train our forearms, we use our forearms in many activities in the gym, such as picking up barbell plates and adding them to the barbell, or doing dumbbell shrugs and farmer's walks. When you lift the dumbbells, you are actually training your forearms directly.

But there is one advantage of training your forearms at home, which is that it saves time. You don’t have to go to the gym to train, you can just do it at home. What’s more convenient is that you don’t need to use dumbbells, barbells and other equipment. You only need your own weight to train strong forearms at home. Let’s take a look.

When you want to exercise your forearm extensor muscles, grab a chair handle and change your position to adjust the resistance provided by the chair, that is, the resistance provided by gravity. When you hold it closer, it will become easier, so you have to hold the armrest and tilt it, and extend your forearm by bending from the wrist to your radius, with your elbows on both sides of your body, and then let the chair tilt, you can exercise your forearm at this time.

When you become stronger, you can hold the back of the chair, which is the top of the chair. At this time, you still have to tilt the chair upwards, which will be more difficult. Obviously, this movement is not easy and it tests the strength of our forearms. If you also feel it is more difficult, you can shorten the distance, which will make our forearms more bearable. In the early stage, we try to focus on grasping the movements. After training for a period of time, it is not too late to increase the difficulty of training.

This movement requires us to turn the chair upside down, grab the horizontal bar of the bench, and twist our wrists towards ourselves. Many people may have done this movement with a barbell in the gym, but since we don’t have a barbell at home, we can use the horizontal bar under the chair instead. The horizontal bar and the barbell actually have the same effect. In this process, you need to let the chair tilt with your movements. This is the correct way.

There is a saying that forearm strength is more important than upper arm strength. The force of the arm itself is very limited. The more you actively tense your arms, the more clumsy you will appear. The arm should be like a hook, so the forearm is a vital part. The arm is not the dominant force point, the leg should be.

The biceps and triceps on your upper arms are actually related to your back and chest, but the requirements for the forearm are different. It is a direct contact part. For example, the wrist flexion and extension or hand gripper we usually do for forearm training can train our forearms. Moreover, we can find such a pattern in life or in the gym: people with thick upper arms are not necessarily strong, but if their forearms are unusually thick, they must be very strong. If you don't believe it, you can go and look for it.
