Beginner Forearms Strength Single Ended Dumbbell Pull Gym

Benefits: This exercise focuses on the wrist adductors, a muscle group that hardly is ever exercised in the gym.

Stand upright with your knees slightly bent and hold dumbbells in each hand as close as possible to the unweighted end. Bend your elbow 90 degrees and brace them against your sides. This is your starting position. Rotate your forearms, lowering the weighted end of the dumbbells to the left for the right dumbbell and to the right for the left dumbbell as far as they will go. Breathe normally. Rotate the weighted end of the dumbbell to the opposite side as far as they will go. Breathe normally. Repeat for the required number of repetitions.

A complete forearm program must achieve balanced development for all major forearm muscles. The forearm is involved in six different forearm movements. They include wrist flexion, wrist extension, wrist abduction, wrist adduction, forearm pronation, and forearm supination. There are additional muscles found in the forearm that are involved in movements like elbow flexion (brachioradialis), finger flexion, and finger extension.
