    *Brief summary of the video :-*
    0:35 Brachioradialis (muscle that connects forearm to biceps) makes your forearms stronger and look much bigger.
    1:08 It is technically not a forearm muscle because it does not control the wrist.
    3:16 Brachioradialis is best targeted with neutral wrist position.
    3:50 Reverse curl options - Straight/EZ bar
    4:54 Reverse grip Lat pulldown
    6:10 Battle ropes
    7:10 Dumbbell offset curls
    8:05 Re-rack the plates
    Hope this helps 😄
    Watch the video for full info...
    It's crazy how much Jeff knows 🙏🏻

      3:16 Brachioradialis generates more force in a neutral position, but it is best targeted in a supinated position (muscle activation).

    Just want to say, I'm type 1 diabetic from the UK, England. I started doing the gym on & off a year ago, but since last October, started being consistent 3x a week. I even took up the services of a couple of sessions with a personal trainer at the gym & it just made me more inclined to give up than keep going. But I started to watch your video's & I have to say thank you. I quickly spotted some of the mistakes I was making, made adjustments & still felt I wasn't being confined to a routine of someone else's making by my own. It kept my gym workouts enjoyable & I felt good every time I finished.
    Although I didn't take up your workout program myself, I have recommended it to others who are in more dire need of help who have taken up your program themselves.
    So again, fantastic video's & keep up the amazing work you do.
    P.s. Is there any alternative to the inclined dumbbell press I could do on a machine, say on the Functional Trainer or something? It's just I've found that I can press weights I can barely get into position to do the workout.
    Thanks in advance :)

    Jeff. I am only a couple weeks younger than you and have trained on and off (more on than off) since I was 13. I have learned so much since subscribing to your channel nearly 2 years ago. From my mid 30s to early 40s, I lost all of my gains from my high school college years from stupid/careless training and poor nutrition. I've had a multitude of injuries over the years the worst of which was herniating my l4/l5 in sept 18. After clearing 3 months of PT at the end of 2018. I went back to the gym, and thanks to the post-therapy workout plan my PT gave me and largely to your workout videos I have regained a lot of my pre-injury strength and put on 15 lbs of muscle I lost and I haven't had any more injuries and minimal aches and pains. I am actually lifting somewhat heavy again. At least my upper body. I can't do full back squats with much weight, but I can leg press 545 lbs for a few reps (much prefer the Bulgarian split squats though). Your videos are not only informative but have taught me to be more analytical about my training and consistent and diligent with eating clean. I am born again thanks to your videos.
    My one request...please write a Athlean X Training encyclopedia or several books comparable to Arnold's. I'm old school.

    The straight-man/funny-man dynamic works incredibly well between Jeff and Jesse, it's hard to imagine an Athlean-X video without it.

Do incline and bench. Slow movements with high resistance bands and cables. Hold the weight for a couple seconds then go back. 1 min long sets.

      When people complain about not getting gains 99% of the time it's because they aren't going high enough intensity. If it's comfortable for you, you aren't doing it right.

    You can also thicken the muscles in your wrist area too. Forearm curls also called wrist curls, reverse forearm curls/reverse wrist curls, hammer wrist curls and reverse hammer wrist curls. Those will hit all four directions the wrist moves in, it works and compliments the forearm nicely and makes it look full all the way through.

      Supplements are just that, supplements. Jeff will tell you the foundation for good nutrition is quality food, with additional supplementation when necessary.
