Biceps Curl Machine

The bicep curl machine won’t allow you to access the full range of motion an actual curl with weights offers. Also, it can cause many issues with posture and form. A traditional bicep curl with dumbbells will perfect your posture, as your shoulders will stay back and down and the only movement in your upper body will come from your forearms.

If you want to know how to do a bicep curl correctly, hold a dumbbell in each hand, and keep your elbows close to your torso. Press your shoulders back and down, so you can anchor your upper body in place.

Then, bend your elbows to lift the weights up, until your biceps are contracted. Then, take a brief pause so you can squeeze the biceps before you lower the dumbbells back to the starting point.

  1. I think instead of parties continuously fighting themselves, blaming the other, wasting time on irrelevent issues that mean nothing to the welfare of its citizens. Stop trying to raise retirement age, the underprivileged work hard enough trying to get there. LEAVE YOUR HANDS OUT OF IT, STOP USEING IT FOR YOUR DOWNFALLS.

  2. Saying that crunches is bad, and that people can build a strong core without doing exercises that target the abs is flat out wrong. Very bad advice. Crunches are one of the most important exercises a person can do. Do most people do them perfectly? No. Still they’re incredibly valuable, because at the end of the day, supporting your core is one of the most important outcomes of any exercise regimen. I like having bigger biceps , but that’s all just for looks!
