Strong, defined forearms are a goal for many people in their overall exercise program. You can get stronger forearms with a combination of the right diet and the right exercises.

The following are some tips for how to get stronger forearms:

Target your forearms
Your forearms get a workout every day, probably more than you realize. Lifting your kids, toting groceries back and forth to the house, and other daily activities all work your forearms. But if you want stronger forearms, you should do concentrated exercises that specifically target the muscles in your forearms. A few good ones include:

• Wrist curls. Wrist curls are an excellent way to strengthen your forearms and can be done with either free weights or with cables. To do a wrist curl, sit at the edge of a chair or exercise bench (if you are using cables). Let your arms rest on your thighs, letting your wrists extend out past your knees. Then, hold the weights or cable bar and roll the weights or bar down your fingers, as you open your hands up. While the weights roll, bend your wrists down and flex your forearms, then tighten your grip on the weights/bar, and bend your wrists back towards you. Make sure you keep your arms on your thighs and make sure you are only moving your wrists. Do this exercise 10-12 times for three reps.
• Reverse wrist curls. This exercise is similar to the wrist curl described above, but this time, your palms should face down as you move your wrists (and only your wrists!) up and down. Make sure you lift and lower slowly to concentrate on the muscles, and don't do more weight than you can handle.
  
• Reverse bicep curl. This is another exercise that will help you to strengthen your forearms. Stand up straight and let your arms hang loosely at your sides, holding the weights or bar with your palms facing your body and the backs of your hands facing in front of you. Keeping your elbows close to your body, bend your elbows and lift your hands up to your shoulders. (You should be gripping the weights or bar from the top, not the bottom)  Repeat this 10-12 times for three reps.
  

Aerobics that work the arms
When working to strengthen your forearms, it's important not to forget aerobic exercise as well. Aerobic, or cardiovascular, exercises will not only tone your forearms, but they will keep your heart healthy and help you to lose fat, allowing you to see the definition in your arms more clearly.

The following aerobic exercises will work to target your forearms:

• Rowing Machine. The rowing machine will work a number of muscles in the arms, including the triceps, biceps, and lats. Rowing machines are an excellent form of aerobic exercise as well as strength training for arms. To work your forearms with a rowing machine, grip the bar with your palms facing down instead of up.
  
• Swimming. Swimming is another excellent form of exercise because it requires the entire body, especially the arms. As a result, you'll burn more calories and target the muscles in your forearms better than other exercises. Swimming can burn about 400 calories in just 30 minutes, and is low-impact, so it's a great choice for people with injuries who still want to strengthen their forearms.

These are just a few things you can do to get stronger forearms.
