Neck and forearms

[EdMan2]

What are some good exercises to put some nice mass on my forearms and get my neck thicker? I've heard heavy deads, but is this enough?

Oh, and btw, I don't mean just a single exercise for both goals, but just in general.

Heavy deads like you said. Also hit them trap directly if they aren't popping up. BB shrugs, feet flat when coming up, don't bend elbows (lifting with arms). Straight up and down , don't roll the shoulders.

Forearms- DB hammers, REV cable curls.

Do you do a lot of compound movements ? If you are you should be hitting these every time, regardless of if you even know it.
