But injuries took their toll on Cain in recent years, sidelined by elbow surgery, a

Except the increase in muscle mass
of forearm flexors — which was significantly greater in the full body group than in the group split.
This involves nothing more than hand flexion — closing your hand around an object and squeezing — but it's great for building
strong forearm flexors, wrists, hands, and fingers.
By activating
the forearm flexors and the biceps, some of the strain intended for the lats is instead transferred to these muscles, thus missing the target of the exercise.
It can be improved by using hand gripper, and the exercises mainly improve
the forearm flexors.
When you grip the bar you activate
the forearm flexors, which in turn activate the biceps further along the arm.
Behind the back barbell wrist curls work

This is another exercise for
the forearm flexors.
For stretching
the forearm flexors, pull back on the fingers of the extended arm.
The forearm flexors or the muscles of the anterior forearm are the ones responsible for gripping the trap bar deadlifts.
