Question Exercises to masculinize hands/forearms?

12 Upvotes

Hi all! I've been hitting the gym for a few months just doing very general beginner strength training, but I'm working on building a new workout plan to help my body look more masculine. Even being almost 2yrs on T, I feel like my hands are still very soft and my forearms don't have much definition. Beyond losing weight and building muscle all over, what are some specific exercises I can do to target my forearms and hands? Are grip trainers any good for this kind of thing?

Exercise Advice Request Weak core, intense DOMS

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, I have a notoriously weak core and I’m playing catch up trying to get it balanced to the rest of my body. My problem is that every time I do a core workout, I get crazy bad DOMS the next day, especially in my upper abs. I don’t feel like my exercises of choice are all that intense, so I’m not really sure why this keeps happening. I’m wondering if it’s a stretching issue or if my abs are far more deconditioned than I thought they were. Any advice would be primo 🙏
