-
jeez, you guys all got your mind in the gutter, I just meant since being married oyu have less time to work out, and the forearms/wrists are an area that most dont work out much anyway <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

How do you actually 'bulk' your wrists up though? I know you can work on grip strength but that often builds forearms etc.. Isn't the wrist mainly tendons/ligaments? so no real muscle to build up??<br />

Well if my laptop is on, the likes of this and FB are always open, so if Mrs TR chose to do so, she could come on here, whether she could navigate about to see what lies Ive been telling is another matter...

<p>over a few years if you are consistent with the pull ups and add some sledgehammer work (and the tennis ball thing), your grip/forearm strength will gradually improve. See how long you can hold on to the bar after doing your last pull up. Repeat consistently.</p>

<p>climb ropes ( no legs ) and do towel pull ups too. The latter are particularly awesome. Do 12 or so of them and come back and let me know how you go. You'll need to get someone else to type though....</p>

<p>On FB I'm a member of a grip strength forum which I hope is a lot less creepy than it sounds and someone mentioned a fisherman he knew closing the 300 grip first time purely from working the ropes on the boats for so many years. Bullshit ? quite possibly but it is the internet and we can't rely on everyone to be as honest as all us ferners.......</p> -
<p>I'm sure it's true. It's what I think should be a fundamental part of working out for those of us who don't do hard physical jobs for a living-repeat hard exercises as much as possible. 6-10 reps*3 isn't enough. People who have to do tough jobs have to do the work for hours.</p>

<p>Yeah but ya can still overdo it really easily. Office workers are warned about OOS and all of that pussy shit but I was down at the park with the boys and wanted to do some rope climbing to show off to some Milfs there. Not happening cos of the pain, stink. </p>
