EZ-Bar Reverse-Grip Preacher Curl
The reverse preacher curl with an EZ-bar, the upper arms on the pad and the hands overhand on the bends.
How to do it
Setup
EZ-bar held overhand on its bends, armpits snug to the top of the preacher pad.
Steps
- Curl the bar up to just below the chin.
- Let the pad carry the upper arms; only the forearms move.
- Take the bar down under control to nearly straight arms.
Common mistakes
Elbows sliding down off the pad at the bottom: set the armpits tight to the pad top. Hips sliding off the seat to cheat: sit square. Weight a regular preacher curl would take: go lighter overhand.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
