i'm gonna try this as i have big probs with forearm pump..

its frustrating when your curling and have to let go/drop the db/bb cos the pump in ur forearms causes the grip to go weak .

i tried strapping meself to the dumbell, open hand grip,cables, but i end up failing the set earlier than i should, cos the pressure is too much ,

if it starts to effect my bicep development i'll be distraught.
