Forearm to bicep ratio
ad
I measured myself for the first time the other day and my forearms are within an inch of my biceps lol
I had a job once as a sheet metal worker and within a year i noticed my forearms were outpacing my arms.
Fast forward to now, i have 15" biceps and 14.25" forearms. (Im not a tall or big guy @ 5-9" )
Problem is i cannot stop doing forearm isolation, its my favorite thing in my whole split. Im up to 40lb dumbell wrist curls for 16 reps x 6 sets (12 total per week). The forearm pump is my favorite thing to pump other than Mrs. HogCranker3000
Am i going to end up looking strange proportion wise?
Maybe I'm overthinking this.
No,cranking my hog as much as i do probbably isn't helpin much.

Old days fir bodybuilding your forearms were to be 1in smaller that bis tris. Calves were to match bis tris. Neck was supposed to be close to bis tris...impossible....imo. idea of balance
Lean into it man... maybe you have a future in arm wrestling.
With a name like hogcranker3000 I’d hope you have insanely big forearms. Or at least one big forearm.
Honestly it’s up to you. Do you want an aesthetic look? Hit bis and tris more. If not then keep on keepin on doing what you enjoy.
Just get an anchor tattoo on your forearm, start smoking a corn cob pipe, and carry a can of spinach with you at all times. NOBODY…I mean NOBODY…messes with Popeye…
Don’t lie you know the only forearm isolation you doing is hog cranking it’s ok we accept you for it don’t need to hide behind lies brother
3 plus sets of cranking my hog to failure a day.
lol before I got to the end of your post I was thinking this is epic considering his user name
