The E-Flex Forearm Bar from Monster Barbell Co. is a free-weight apparatus specifically designed to build and strengthen the
forearms, wrist flexors, and extensor muscles.
This bar off-sets the weight at 35 degrees and sets the hands at a seven degree
angle. This allows you to stand and directly flex the weight for full range of motion resulting in substantially increased muscle
concentration and engagement of all major muscle groups that make up the forearms and wrist flexors
Reverse Wrist Curl

Wrist Curl

Our Experience With Barbells
Although barbells and dumbbells will always be the mainstay of free-weight training
(these exercise's may also be performed using dumbbells) there are several limiting factors associated with this method.
The bracing of the forearms reduces muscle engagement of the brachioradialis.
40% to 50%.
The barbell supination grip (palms
facing up) places a great amount of stress on the wrist flexors and wrist ligaments which over time can lead to injury.
Muscle
engagement of the extensor muscles is not applicable.
