How to do it

  1. Stand tall and grip the EZ bar on its angled sections, about shoulder-width apart.
  2. Keep your elbows at your sides and curl the bar up toward your shoulders.
  3. Squeeze your biceps at the top, then lower the bar under control until your arms are straight.
  4. Keep your wrists straight and don't rock your hips or lean back to get the bar moving.

Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
