Quick Fact
Contrary to their name you cannot perform a true wrist curl with a wrist roller
Wrist Curl Targets the Wrist Flexors and Brachioradialis.
This Will Build Strong Wrist Flexors Improving Bat Speed and Ouick Hands Through the Hitting Zone
The Extensor Wrist Curl Targets The Extensor Muscles That Are Responsible For Elbow & Wrist Rotation.
Great For Snapping Off A Curveball Or Slider and Essential To Overall Forearm & Wrist Strength Development.
This Is Also A Key Exercise Missing From Most Forearm / Wrist Strength Developers.
Forearm Flexors - (wrist and grip strength)
Wrist Flexors - (wrist and grip strength)
Extensor Muscles - (elbow and
wrist rotation)
Brachioradialis - (acts to flex the forearm at the elbow)
The E-Flex Forearm Bar targets all of these muscle groups.
Barbells only target the wrist flexors, forearm flexors and limited engagement of the brachioradialis.
Wrist Rollers only target the Forearm Flexors and partially target the Brachioradialis.
Grip Emphasis Devices only target
the Forearm Flexors with partial engagement of the Wrist Flexors.
Reverse Wrist Curl Targets the Forearm Flexors and Brachioradialis.
This Will Build Powerful Forearms For Power and Distance
There are four muscle groups that make up the forearms.
For optimal bat speed it is critical that you target and strengthen all four.
The E-flex Forearm bar is specifically designed to do just that.
I received the new E-Flex Forearm Bar and I have to tell you... You've done it again! I was highly impressed with the original Pro Series Forearm Bar and it's versatility in training baseball players, but this updated version adds a whole new dimension to preparing my ball players for the demands of the diamond.
It's no secret that forearm strength and power will help batters with more solid contact at the plate, more bat speed through the hitting zone, and greater distance on hits. But until now they have had to change from barbells, to dumbells, to squeezing tennis balls, to buckets of rice. Now you can get superior results with one piece of equipment.
And it works great for pitchers, catchers, and outfielders who need to get every bit of strength in their throws as well. Getting that last explosive snap of the wrist adds that "little something" to throws that would have otherwise not gotten the job done. Add to that the ability to work a pitchers forearm in a "pitching specific" motion of snapping off a curveball or slider and you've got a great tool in your hands.
Simply put, any baseball player that does not train with the forearm bar is not reaching their full potential... Period!

The reverse biceps curl targets the outer head of the biceps with secondary emphasis on the forearms and triceps.
The ergonomics and leverage mechanics incorporated into the E-Flex Forearm Bar allow you to use less weight with far superior results than with barbells or dumbbells .
Biceps / Triceps / Shoulder Training
Essential to overall arm strength development and injury prevention.

Hitting Strength
What are coaches / scouts looking for?
Hitting With Power
Hitting the ball for power is one of the more desirable traits for
any hitter and one that will grab a scout’s attention. In order to hit for power, a hitter needs outstanding bat speed. Bat
speed produces distance and all outstanding hitters have it. A hitter with major league power will regularly hit the ball over the
fence in batting practice and should be able to drive the ball over 400 feet.
In All Of Sports Hitting A Baseball Is One Of The Most Difficult Things To Do
You are trying to hit a round ball with a round bat and you have 0.7 seconds before the ball reaches the hitting zone and in that time you have to adjust your swing to the movement, speed and velocity of the pitch.
This is where forearm and wrist strength come into play because this is where bat speed is generated. A difference of 1/100 of a second of bat speed through the hitting zone can be the difference between weak contact and solid contact.
A difference of 1/100 of a second of bat speed through the hitting zone can be the difference between a sub .300 hitter or an above .300 hitter
The E-Flex Forearm Bar is a revolutionary patented multi – purpose free-weight apparatus designed specifically with the ball player in mind. The unique leverage mechanics and ergonomics incorporated into this apparatus allow you to build powerful forearms, super strong wrist flexors and strengthen the extensor muscles of the forearms that are responsible for elbow and wrist rotation.
This bar also allows you to develop grip strength, target and isolate the biceps and strengthen
the all important muscles of the rotator cuff.
