Forearm workouts are one part of the body that is a struggle for many people. The main reason, is they are so hard to get to grow. You must have a different type of strategy when adding mass onto your forearms..
The strategy that must be implemented in order to put on mass in the forearms, is doing a lot more sets and reps than you would do for say your legs or back. The forearms simply need a lot more stimulation to grow then other muscle groups.
