Best for Excercise for Bicep?

[PoweredUp]

Yes, you get more outward rotation with the EZ bar than with the straight bar. Just look at the bar a moment and think about it.

But since you seem to need a lesson, tomorrow is back/bi day so I will get someone to tape me doing a demo set for you with the EZ bar with my palms rotated away from each other and the pinky over the thumb, thus targeting my bicep.

I don't need a lesson because I rarely bother with isolated bicep exercises, but I would love to see you curling a bar with your palms facing away from one another. This ought to be good...

Lads, arguing the finer points of bicep curls is really moot.

Your arms will look bigger when you triceps are bigger.

Your insertions of your biceps and the shape is genetically determined, you may or may not have peaks or bifurcation of the bicep that will be seen.

I am a big fan of old school BBing.

Until my coach gave me a program that trains my arms, I would only do them about once a month, if that.

Part of my issue is that my larger triceps are making my biceps look even more puny.

But I gotta shoot a video to demo how to do an EZ bar curl.

With palms facing away from one another. Can't wait to see it...

straight barbell curl- best bicep mass builder imo

I dont bother with that ez bar shit, only reason people use that is to put less strain on their wrists, it has no benefit over a straight bar.

I think HIT works the best for direct bicep stimulation.

Seated Inclind Dbell curls

Never use the EZ Curl only straight (according to Nelson!), I'll never tough it again.

The EZ-bar puts MORE stress on your wrists. That's why I brought it up. There are two ways to hold an EZ-bar.

Since we seem to have so many here with more muscle than brains, I made a video today to demonstrate.

Another good way to hit the bicep is the reverse preacher curl with dumbells. This may be the best way because it is almost impossible to cheat the movement and because you can rotate your hand into whatever position you want.

Touche - although I have doubts that many people would be unable to hold the bar like that. I also wonder how much weight you could put on the bar holding it in that fashion. I couldn't tell if those were 10s or 25s that you were using...

Tomorrow is my next pull day, so I'll grab the EZ bar and see if I can even gets my wrists to face away from one another. It's possible that you have a lot more flexibility in your joints that most people do...
