EZ Bar curl grip

[Backlash]

So, the bar is straight in the middle, then bends one direction, then bends the opposite direction, then is straight again. Where should I be gripping it, and what's the difference?

Right now I'm gripping it on the outer bend for standing curls and on the inner bend for preacher curls. That just seemed to be where it was most comfortable.

Wide grip and close grip curls are different exercises homey. Hence the shape of the bar.

Yeah that's kinda what I figured. So, which is recommended? Or should I just continue to do both?

I like the inner grip myself for just about all bi work on the ez curl bar. especially preachers. I know different grips work different "heads" or areas of the bi but I just don't know what grip does what. sorry man. good luck

Keep using both! It's always good to hit your muscles from different angles.

i use inside on ez curl bar for preacher, but then i use a moderatly wide grip on barbell for standing barbell curls, so it targets my bis from all different angles.

I like to choose a grip that is the most confortable on my wrist
