reverse grip bicep curls with a barbell do it for me?

they will grow over time mate... if your skinny they will normally be very thin... they are not really something you want to target at this stage as training them specifically will not help with your grip as they will be sore and youll suffer on other more important exercises...

concentrate on your basic training and eating for now and youll find yur forearms grow alongside the rest of you! no need to target them specifically at this stage!

i think grip work is great fun-
you can pinch grip weight plates,use a wrist roller,grippers,wrist curls,finger curls and thick bar work to name a few.

heres a link to a grip training forum-

http://www.gripboard.com/

(you will have to join tho - its free)

and another great site is-

http://www.functionalhandstrength.com/

ive found that gripwork doesnt really affect my workouts unless i`m in PB territory.
but then i`m not a competitor and have different goals

just throw the wrist straps in the bin and watch the forearms grow.

Try some wrist curls mate, they seem to do the job for me, watch out though because they burn.
