Technique

  1. Stand holding an EZ-bar with an overhand grip on the outer angled sections, arms straight.
  2. Keep the elbows at your sides and wrists neutral.
  3. Curl the bar up toward your shoulders without letting the wrists drop.
  4. Lower the bar under control until your arms are straight.

Cues

  • Keep wrists in line with the forearms.
  • The angled bar is gentler on the wrists.

Common mistakes

  • Letting the wrists bend back at the top.
  • Swinging the hips.
  • Using a load that is too heavy for the forearms.
