GRIP FREAK Wrist Roller & Forearm Workout Tool

Basic Forearm Training Equipment 

Prior to the creation of common hand grippers, wrist rollers, and a myriad of pinch grip tools athletes and bodybuilders relied upon barbell wrist curls for forearm training. As typically performed with athlete seated upon a bench barbell in hands. With forearms resting atop thighs palms facing up to train Forearm flexor muscles. The bar would then be lowered down to fingertips. To be forcefully curled upwards to a full grip muscle contraction. Often combined with a 2 second squeeze to maximize effect. A typical barbell grip workout would consist of 3-4 sets of 15-20 repetitions. As required to adequately challenge and condition the high endurance muscle groups of forearms, wrists and hands. To train the forearm extensor muscles, the same athlete body position on bench would apply, However, this time the forearms would be reversed and positioned flat on thighs. With barbell hooked and hanging in fingertips, palms facing athlete knees, A reverse barbell wrist curl would then be applied raising the bar as far as possible. While keeping forearms flat on the lifters thighs to set completion. Dumbbell wrist curls were every bit as popular for singling out left & right forearms to correct balance issues. Or to amplify dynamic training effects not afforded by a two-hand grip on a barbell. As well a dumbbell head could be held in hand and the remainder curled with wrists rotating in multiple directions to mimic sport specific movements.

A twisting of rope effect that slowly raised the weight plate from floor to shaft. For several sets of 15-20 repetitions. This humble hand grip strengthener, though a decent option to barbell and dumbbell wrist curls, could hardly replace those for building a crushing handshake. Due in large part to a glaring design issue that was a real pain in the delts!
