https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-importance-of-forearm-strength-and-how-to-build-it/ > I received an email from a listener named Trish a few weeks ago all about the importance of forearm strength. Trish said, “I read somewhere that having weak forearms can limit your ability to build other muscles. That seems extreme. Is it true? And other than not being able to build bigger biceps, why should we worry about our forearm strength? Thanks.” > Great questions. I will tackle them in the order they were asked and then give you some exercises that you can do to strengthen those puny wrists.
