EZ-Bar Curl

How to do it

  1. Stand with feet shoulder width apart, gripping the EZ-curl bar on the angled inner grips just inside shoulder width.
  2. Keep the elbows tucked against the ribs and the upper arms still for the entire set.
  3. Curl the bar up toward the chest by flexing the biceps, keeping the wrists in line with the forearms on the angled grip.
  4. Squeeze the biceps hard at the top of the curl for a brief pause.
  5. Lower the bar back to full arm extension with control, inhaling as it descends and exhaling on the curl up.
  6. Keep the hips and shoulders still throughout and avoid rocking the torso to help lift the bar.
