Always remember, forearms must be exercised and taken as serious as any other muscle group in the body, forearms are used in every movement of the body while exercising wether its by gripping, pulling or pushing they do get a reasonable amount of exercising during a normal workout.
This doesnt mean you dont have to train them as a seperate item, indeed you do, as noted they get a good amount of usage during a normal workout this means any exercise you do purely for the forearms will not be as intense as many other muscle groups. Good exercises for forearms are wrist curls and reverse wrist curls, wrist curls are usually performed leaning on a bench and keeping the forearms still while gripping a bar bring the weight up using the wrists only, to do both reverse and normal just rotate your hands so the palm is facing down for reverse curls and fingers towards you for normal. One mistake many bodybuilders make is they dont use enough weight in forearm training, forearms are similar to calves and seem to need a lot of weight and a lot of reps to get good results, your technique must be as strict as possible to isolate the forearms during exercise. A positive side effect of good forearms is they aid your grip during other exercises they also look good when they can flow into the upper arm muscles, exercise the forearms right from the beggining and you wont have to play catch up later.
