A barbell curl is a
barbell curl, right? Not exactly. You'll have to try this movement to
know what we mean. It's like a regular barbell curl except that you lean
against a pole or wall - and stay firmly there during the entire
exercise. Talk about intensity !
Don't expect to
use the same weight as a regular barbell curl. Lighten the load when
performing the barbell pole curl workout.
Keep your head and
upper torso firmly against the pole throughout the range of motion.
Don't let your back come off the surface even an inch !
Use wide, medium
and close grips to target specific areas of the biceps muscle.
Keep your elbows
locked at your sides when doing the barbell pole curl - don't let them come up and in front of your
torso.
