EZ-Bar Reverse-Grip Curl

Ez Barbell Reverse Grip Curl

- Weight plates (optional, adjust according to your strength level)
1. Starting Position:
- Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Hold the EZ barbell with both hands using a reverse grip (palms facing down), placing your hands on the curved sections of the bar. Ensure your grip is about shoulder-width apart.
- Let the bar hang at arm's length in front of your thighs.

2. Body Positioning:
- Keep your back straight and slightly engage your core to maintain stability.
- Your elbows should be close to your body throughout the movement.

3. Movement - Curling Up:
- Inhale and begin the movement by bending your elbows and curling the barbell towards your shoulders.
- Keep your wrists straight and avoid using momentum; focus on using your forearms to lift the weight.
- Continue to lift until the bar approaches shoulder height.

4. Movement - Lowering Down:
- Exhale as you slowly lower the barbell back to the starting position, fully extending your arms while maintaining control.
- Ensure your elbows remain close to your torso throughout the entire movement.

5. Repetition:
- Perform 8-12 repetitions, depending on your fitness level.
- Rest for 30-60 seconds between sets.
- Aim for 3-4 sets in total.

Tips for Beginners:
- Start with lighter weights to master the form before increasing the load.
- Keep the movement slow and controlled to maximize muscle engagement and prevent injury.
- If you experience any discomfort in your wrists or elbows, reduce the weight and check your grip position.
