To develop that big flexor/pronator belly, you need to use wrist flexion. Really heavy wrist curls bother a lot of my lifters' wrists, so we usually go for sets of 8-plus and seek a pump rather than maximal strength.
Wrist rollers are better suited for heavy wrist flexion, and this version is especially challenging since the resistance increases as you roll.
Those aches and pains, that annoying inflexibility, that injury that flares up whenever you try to deadlift a number that's higher than your IQ – all of it could be the result of tight or inflamed fascia.
