How to perform Cable EZ-Bar Curl

  1. Attach an EZ-bar handle to a low cable pulley and stand facing the machine.
  2. Take an underhand grip on the middle curved sections, allowing your wrists to follow the bar's angle.
  3. Stand tall with your upper arms beside your torso and the cable taut.
  4. Bend your elbows to curl the bar upward without leaning back or lifting your upper arms.
  5. Pause briefly, then lower the bar under control while keeping the same grip and upper-arm position.
