Wouldn't bother with any of them to be honest, deadlifts and shrugs would be my choice.

Do wrist curls for both anterior and posterior parts of your forearm

When working the post. part lets the dumbell roll as close to your finger tips as possible and the roll it up into your palm before you clench and do the finale upward contraction.

Dumbell roll figure x 2 repeated x 4.

Upward, decline shift, back x 5.
