The Workout
Start with this as your primary movement. Warm up with 2 lighter sets first.
Form cues
- Extend one arm in front of you with the palm facing up.
- Place the opposite hand on top of the fingers, pressing down gently.
- Curl the wrist up against the resistance of your other hand.
Advanced movement — prioritize form over weight.
Form cues
- Set up in a standard push-up position but support yourself on your fingertips, not palms.
- Spread your fingers wide and keep them slightly curved — do not lock them straight.
- Perform push-ups with the same form as standard push-ups, lowering your chest to the floor.
Finish strong — take the last set close to failure.
Form cues
- Grip a pull-up bar with an overhand grip, shoulder-width apart.
- Let your body hang fully — arms completely extended.
- Relax your shoulders and let them stretch toward your ears.
Why This Workout Works
This workout is built around the principles of strength training. Center your program around the big compound lifts: squat, bench press, deadlift, and overhead press. Use heavy loads (80-95% 1RM) with low reps and full recovery between sets. Periodize intensity — not every session should be a max effort.
Training Parameters
- Rep Range: 3-6 reps — heavy enough for maximal force production
- Rest Periods: 3-5 minutes — full recovery between heavy sets
- Sets Per Exercise: 4-6 sets — optimized for strength
Forearms Training Tips
- *Farmer carries are the single best forearm builder — heavy, simple, effective.
- *Grip training 2-3 times per week compounds rapidly — most lifters see big gains in 8 weeks.
- *Dead hangs for time build crushing grip and decompress the spine.
