Wrist Roller Guide

Main Muscle: Forearms

  1. To begin, stand straight up grabbing a wrist roller using a pronated grip (palms facing down). Your feet should be shoulder width apart.
  2. Slowly lift both arms until they are fully extended and parallel to the floor in front of you. Note: Make sure the rope is not wrapped around the roller. Your entire body should be stationary except for the forearms. This is the starting position.
  3. Rotate one wrist at a time in an upward motion to bring the weight up to the bar by rolling the rope around the roller.
  4. Once the weight has reached the bar, slowly begin to lower the weight back down by rotating the wrist in a downward motion until the weight reaches the starting position.
  5. Repeat for the prescribed amount of repetitions in your program.

Review: Wrist Roller

Exercise Rating

Nov 3, 2009 8:21 AM: I do not like this exercise at all. It only leads to bad form and unnecessary pressure on your shoulders and delts. There are much better exercises to increase forearm size and strength. When training forearm, remember that your wrist is the secondary muscle/tendon group involved. It can easily be overtrained...+See More
