Equipment
Grasp the EZ-Barbell with an underhand grip (palms facing up) and ensure your hands are shoulder-width apart.
Slowly curl the bar upwards, keeping your upper arms and elbows stationary against the pad, until your biceps are fully contracted and the bar is at shoulder level. Ensure that you exhale during this movement.
Hold the contracted position for a moment as you squeeze your biceps.
Gradually lower the bar back to the starting position, inhaling as you do so, to complete one repetition.
Pro Tip
Grip and Elbow Placement: Hold the EZ-bar with an underhand grip, with your hands shoulder-width apart. Your elbows should be close to your body and aligned with your shoulders. Avoid flaring your elbows out to the side as this can lead to injury. Control the Movement: Slowly curl the bar up to shoulder level while keeping the upper arms stationary. Avoid using your back or shoulders to lift the weight; your forearms should do all the work. Full Range of Motion: Lower the bar all the way down to the starting position. A common mistake is to not fully extend the arms at the bottom of the movement, which can limit the effectiveness of the exercise. Avoid Rushing:
