Are big forearms more aesthetic than biceps?
>>
>>40346384
no, they look weird
deltoids are the true aesthetic muscle

t. actual faggot

Aesthetics are subjective my friend. I like the silverback gorilla look as opposed to the tight waist shredded femboy
>>
>>40345920
Fuck dude mirin. How do you do it? I have tiny forearms and I've always wanted thicc ones.
>>
>>40347152
Wrist roller is a staple, but just train forearms 2-3x a week, anything will do; forearm cable curls, kettlebell twists, deadhangs, plate pinches, etc
>>
>>40347198
Cool man, ill try some
>>
>>40346384
yes, I think girls like veiny forearms over bulky biceps with very little definition. Ideally, you'd want a good balance but I see too many guys who are bulky but look like total bicep bros
>>
this shit
>>
>>40347152
not anon you replied to but if you want to try something different look into rock climbing. bouldering, walls, indoor, outdoor, doesnt fucking matter. no amount of gym training will prepare you for the forearm devastation that is climbing
>>
>>40347712
Kinda sounds boring desu. Do you do it?
>>
>>40347712
this is true. I went rock climbing and my arms where about to burst the veins where popping like crazy and the pump was insane babe.
>>
>>40347198
How do you count reps of wristrollers and how many reps do you do per set?

Also I've started doing wrist training recently with a grip strengthener and wrist curls
>>
>>40347712
climbing is anything but boring. great blend of strength and technique. i even consider it a creative outlet.

Not OP but I climb, it's so much fun. There is a lot of physicality to climbing, but something people forget about is the mental aspect. The more challenging the routes get the more important it is to solve the routes and understand what moves to make where otherwise you won't finish the route

Heavy ass above the knee rack pulls with no straps
I did 3 sets of 515 lbs with 5 reps of a 5 second hold today
Great way to work traps and forearms which are the most alpha muscles

Me too. Deadlifts are easily my favorite.

Lately I've been doing thumbless double overhand on light day to improve grip strength.

I did bouldering ones, holy shit my forearms where on fire for 3 days straight
>>
>>40348035
you ever entered a competition? I entered a bouldering competition and came second last but it was insane fun

having to figure out the beta with no prior knowledge of the route really gets the cranium cooking
>>
>>40347096
That's because you're a faggot.

A V taper is scientifically more attractive to women

skinny fucker but I think I have good forearms/veins
>>
I've been doing dumbbell static holds for time one arm at a time. Once I can hold it for a minute in both my hands I move the weight up It's been working pretty well so far.

I used to double overhand all my deadlifts but honestly it's not really worth it since it set my deadlift so far back from what it could be.

the majority of the population is still heterosexual when they become adults. You're like 10% of the population max.

>>40347712
This is true. I tried rock climbing thinking, "Oh, I've been lifting for a few months, this should be ezpz." My forearms were screaming at the end of it
>>
>>40353281

I swear every day is calves day for me. It's a combination of photo angle and bad genetics, they're not that awful seeing them from behind
>>
>>40345920
I've seen you post before, and I think it's safe to say that you have some of the best forearms on /fit/

the majority of the population is also under-educated, overweight, and lack any general self awareness.

I would rather be a minority that leads a path than be one of the majority that just walks down the same road that everyone else has walked for the longest time.

No hate against you and your life decisions, just know that the "majority rule" is not often the best (though that does not mean the minority is either, of course). Never hurts to do some critical thinking while checking out that after workout pump.

am i the only one who thinks the vascular look is fucking atrocious

veins look like shit, i don't get it

>>40353880
No, most other women agree with you too

are you kidding me, girls fucking love thick forearms. Maybe not SUPER vascular like a dehydrated bodybuilder, but definitely some vscularity going on.

It's genetic for me, so it can't be helped. I have been told that it's sexy by women before tho, so it works out.
>>
>>40354113
>>40354045
People love everything. There are girls who like 600lb whales of blubber. I am just personally saying I find immense vascularity utterly disgusting. I much prefer the huge forearm look of someone like Brian Alsruhe rather than the shredded look of a body builder.

I was just saying that seems like a pretty unpopular opinion though
