Technique

How to perform EZ-Bar Curl

  1. Stand upright holding an EZ-bar with a normal, approximately shoulder-width underhand grip, letting your hands follow the bar's angles.
  2. Keep your upper arms beside your torso and your wrists aligned with your forearms.
  3. Bend your elbows to raise the bar without swinging your torso or moving your upper arms forward.
  4. Stop at the highest position you can reach while keeping that upper-arm position.
  5. Lower the bar under control by extending your elbows.
