Wrist roller work, sometimes it's called wrist rolling. Best done with roller supported in a rack, to overcome limitation of shoulder fatigue, plus one can handle decent poundages that way. Just make sure to roll both ways to develop both flexors and extensors. Extensors won't be able to handle nearly as much weight as flexors will though. Add BB finger rolls ( heavy ), and you can build massive and powerful forearms in no time.

Hmm.. Gripping... <--probably the best forearm workout. Everything is is a waste of time. Unless you're struggling to deadlift 500+. JMO though...
