Coach's Tips

You can handle heavier weights than you can do with a dumbbell. If you have a sore wrist when doing the Barbell Biceps Culr, I recommend using the EZ bar.

How to EZ-Bar Bicep Curl

Starting Position

1. Avoid arching your back or swinging as you curl the weight.

2. Don_ use momentum to raise the weight; use controlled movements instead.

3. Don_ lock your elbows at the top of the movement.

4. Don_ use too much weight if you_e a novice gym goer. Start with a lighter weight and slowly increase the weight as you get stronger.

Proper Form

1. Without swinging, curl the bar up towards your chest, keeping your elbows tucked in at your sides.

2. Squeeze your biceps and hold for a brief second at the top of the movement.

3. Slowly lower the bar back to the starting position.

Breathing Technique

1. Inhale as you lower the bar back to the starting position.

2. Exhale as you curl the bar up towards your chest.

Precautions

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and grasp an EZ-bar with an underhand grip, your hands should be slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.

2. Engage your core and keep your back straight throughout the exercise.

3. Hold the bar in front of your thighs with your elbows tucked into your sides.
