To perform proper Bicep Curls with Barbell, you must:
- In the initial position, you should be standing up straight with a shoulder-width stance and with your shoulders squared.
- Allow the barbell to hang at arm’s length in front of you, with your hands, arms, and shoulders aligned. While focusing on your biceps and keeping your upper arms still, lift the bar upwards to your chest.
- Once you’ve lifted the bar as high as you can, squeeze your biceps and then begin slowly lowering the bar down until your arms are nearly straight, again.
- It’s crucial that you don’t lean backward or swing the weight during barbell curls. Leaning back causes you to cheat by using your back to lift the weight, and swinging the weight causes you to cheat by using momentum to get the bar to the top of the lift.
