Exercise Overview
The EZ-bar curl is a classic biceps isolation exercise that uses a curved bar to reduce wrist strain while allowing a strong curling motion. This exercise effectively targets the biceps brachii, making it ideal for building arm size and strength with controlled, joint-friendly mechanics.
How To Do It
1. Setup
Stand upright holding an EZ-bar with an underhand grip, hands shoulder-width apart. Keep feet planted firmly on the floor.
2. Starting Position
Arms fully extended, elbows close to your sides, chest up, and core engaged.
3. Execution
Curl the bar upward toward your shoulders by bending at the elbows while keeping your upper arms stationary.
4. Return
Lower the bar slowly back to the starting position under control, maintaining tension on the biceps.
