In general workin out forearms once or twice will do coz ur forearm is also used while u do other exercise like dead like single arm row etc....but if u look for adding more size to it then u should try Staggered Sets....

Staggered Sets - Training smaller, slower-developing body parts like calves or forearms in between all sets for your major body parts. Arnold Schwarzenegger relied on this principle early in his career to develop his calves. He would do a set for chest, back or shoulders, then he would do a set of calf raises while his major muscle group was recovering for the next set. He'd then alternate sets for the working body part and calves. His calves got plenty of time to recover in-between sets and by the end of his workout, he would have subjected them to as many as 15-20 total sets of various calf raises.

use moderate to heavy weights about 10 to 15 reps...

Generally you should work each muscle group no more than every other day, leaving a day of rest in between for the muscles to rebuild. Hope that helps!

What Valerino said!

Usually people weight train Monday Wednesday and Friday, leaving Tuesday, Thursday and the weekend for rest.

Unless you're very experienced in weightlifting, then you can get away with working out everyday. But you shouldn't do that, these guys know what they're doing.
