I read somewhere that calves and forearms can we worked out 2-3times/week. Looking for more size on them both but dont want to overtrain. Thoughts?

They can, yes. Twice a week is what I'd personally recommend.

Forearms exercises please.....Reps and sets? Thanx
SC, what days do you work forearms on, and with what bodyparts? As far as symmetry goes, what should your forearms measurement-wise be compared to. For ex. Calves and arms. Thanks.
I train forearms twice a week. Twice a week grip work. Basically picking up heavy ass dumbells and walking with them if no one is around for as far as I can. Once or twice a week ill do wrist curls..but I dont know how much that really helps with forearm size. Remember the forearms get worked a lot with different exercises...deadlifts, bent over rows..etc.
behind the back curls x4
reverse wrist curls x 4
i dunno if your gym has this...but my gym has a little machine..its like a grip machine
i usually load 1 45 plate on it and just do single arms grips as many as possible...load up for one set of heavy like 2 plates and a 25..bang out ten...it hurts...also u ever seen a 10 pound weight tied around a lil bar...and u hold it in front of u and twist it up and down..it really works ur forarms
A couple times a week is fine. Do some wrist curls and hammer curls.
The Rope Twisting Always Works Good
