Barbell Curl

The biceps lift everyone does — and everyone can do stricter.

How to do Barbell Curl

1. Stand tall, grip at shoulder width, arms fully extended.
2. Curl the bar up without your elbows leaving your sides.
3. Lower all the way to straight arms. Straight, not 'mostly'.

Where reps get stolen

The hip pop. That little bump at the start means the first half of the curl belongs to your hips.
