Forearm trouble

[donnydarkoIRL]

The whole reason I take Multi's, even if bananas are in the house,I never think to eat them. That lack will torch you,so I make a point of taking multi's. Im very lean and very tight, no Potassium makes the Monkey a very crampy boy

That could well be the problem then.

The pain was dulled last week by my swollen face, but when that came down I was feeling it. Very strange.

Donnie I was experiencing regular, almost daily calf and some times even in my hands cramping until I started a twice daily liquid multi vitamin. Cleared it right up. Also as TM speaks of, I up'd my regularly eating of bananas.

I have rarely done a workout without having a banana before it in a long time now. Not one single cramp.

You may also try stretching your forearms on a regular basis:

I would also suggest you take the carpal tunnel test just to rule it out. It can be found here:
Wrist Rollers

It could also be because one part of your forearm is stronger than another. If the flexors are a lot stronger than the extensors (or visa versa) it can cause problems. So using a wrist roller or some other form of training may help.

If you have access to the rollers, you should put it in to your lifting regiment anyway. One of the biggest problems with boxers is lack of physical balance. Chest like a wall,shoulders of granite,biceps of Adonis,forearms and calfs like a little girl

Im a big fan of Bruce Lee and he had sick 4arms.


I made my own wrist roller. I took a peice of PVC pipe and drilled a hole in it and put rope through it and it works perfect. I also do palm up/down wrist curls, leverage bar curls and twist, grippers (with a spring loaded gripper), etc.
