EZ Bar Reverse Curls

Muscles worked

Technique

Setup

Stand tall holding the EZ bar on its angled grips with your palms facing down, arms extended against your thighs. Pin your elbows at your sides.

Movement

Curl the bar up with your palms still facing down until your forearms are near vertical. Lower slowly all the way to full extension.

Form Tip

Keep your wrists straight and in line with your forearms; letting them bend back under the bar strains the wrist instead of training the forearm.

Increase Difficulty

Add weight, or slow the lowering to 3 seconds.

Decrease Difficulty

Use a lighter bar, or switch to Reverse Dumbbell Curls.
