Stronger wrists and forearms in 60 seconds

No other exercise is not loaded so the forearm by winding disk (wristt roller). If you are doing this exercise,
you know that after you finish your veins pop up like nothing else, and forearms grow rapidly. There is one problem, however, and these are the shoulders. Want to get moving, but holding the handle above his head limited repetitions and weight that you can use.

If you want to help your shoulder muscles support your forearms somewhere. Thus takes a significant part of the load on your shoulders and you can do more reps with more weight.

WORKOUT 

1. Wrist Roller
series: 3 ; reps: 2

2. Plate Pinch 
series: 3 ; reps: for the longest possible time

3. Fat Bar Curl 
series: 3 ; reps: 10 

 Additional advice

Avoid the use of wicks for each pulled exercise since they inhibit the development of the forearm. Unless you really do not need them at record breaking or you really can not hold the weight, do not use wicks.
