Technique

How to perform Cable EZ-Bar Narrow-Grip Curl

  1. Attach an EZ bar to the low pulley of a cable machine.
  2. Stand facing the machine with your feet shoulder-width apart, gripping the inner curved sections of the EZ bar with palms facing up.
  3. Keep your elbows close to your sides and your back straight.
  4. Engage your core to stabilize your upper body. This is your starting position.
  5. Exhale as you curl the bar upward, focusing on contracting your biceps. Avoid swinging your arms or leaning back, and keep your elbows fixed in place throughout the motion.
  6. Pause briefly at the top of the movement, then slowly lower the bar back to the starting position while inhaling.
  7. Maintain control to maximize muscle engagement.
  8. Repeat for the prescribed repetitions.
