Wrist strengthener – forearm trainer

This sports equipment is intended for the development forearm muscles. As you know, this muscle group belongs to the so-called "difficult muscle groups" - they are extremely difficult to respond to even the most powerful, massive physical impact; many bodybuilders kill years to obtain any visible result. This machine is designed to help you in this difficult and painstaking work.

Forearm trainer design diagram with dimensions of component elements:

Brush strengthener or Carpal trainer consists of a frame (1) and a rotating handle (2), connected to a weight mounted on guides. As they say, “everything ingenious is simple” - by rotating the handle with wrist movements and muscular efforts of the forearms, you wind the cable around the tube, thereby lifting the weight. Having “twisted” to the very top, the athlete performs a controlled lowering of the weight of the projectile, rotating his hands in the opposite direction... Load level is regulated by the amount of cargo attached to the cable. In our opinion, it is a very useful and necessary sports tool.

Using various grips and rotations, you can work all the muscles of the forearm. The design of the device completely eliminates any possibility of injury.

In fact, the simplest wrist training device is very easy and affordable to implement at home. If the first picture shows us what a professional machine looks like, then the figure below clearly shows how this machine can be made from scrap material with a minimum of financial and production costs - so to speak, cheap and cheerful!

The hand trainer shown on it (hand strengthener) is a metal pipe 50-60 cm long, to which a cable with a load (weights, discs from a barbell) is rigidly connected. The tube is attached to the wall using brackets at a height of a meter and a half from the floor - approximately at chest level so that it rotates freely in the holes (grooves) of the brackets. The essence of the exercises on this device is to wind the cable onto the pipe by working with different hand grips (both from above or below, standing with your back to the machine, left - from above, right - from below, etc.).
