Forearms and Grip: My Favorite Exercises

I also like barbell plate pinching. Throw a few 10's or 5's on each side of a barbell and pinch. You can do rows, deadlifts, cleans, snatches etc.

Nice -- I did these yesterday. How could I have overlooked such a simple option? The pre-weighted curl bars at my gym are great for these. Good width and smooth weight plates so you don't have anything extra to grip on to. This will now be a staple.

no one has mentioned rope climbing yet, a nice 2-3 inch rope pwns.
