M.E TRAINING PREACHER CURLS WITH DUMBBELLS EXECUTION: Grab a dumbbell and make sure your elbow is supported on the pad and you are in a stable position. Curl the dumbbell till your forearm touches your bicep. Squeeze your bicep and then return to the initial position. JUAN’S TIP: Don’t stop too early when you lower the dumbbell - you need to stretch your bicep during the negative phase. STANDING CURLS WITH EZ BAR EXECUTION: Keep a tight posture and stand with your feet about shoulder-width apart. Grab an EZ bar with an underhand grip. Curl the bar to your shoulders until your arms fully contract. JUAN’S TIP: Don’t overload the bar with weight. Rather focus on keeping your elbows from moving because, if they do, they become part of the movement which defeats the purpose of the exercise. Keep your elbows at your sides to isolate your biceps. Don’t rely on any momentum to get the weight up. Go lighter and do the movement with a controlled pace without locking out. 44 Muscle Evolution
