How to perform EZ Bar Wrist Curl with proper form
Setup
- Equipment: Use an EZ bar.
- Grip: Stand or sit holding the EZ bar with an underhand grip (palms facing up), shoulder-width apart.
Execution
- Positioning: Rest your forearms on a flat surface (e.g., your thighs or a bench) while allowing your wrists to hang off. Keep your elbows close to your body.
- Movement:
- Curl the EZ bar upward by flexing your wrists.
- Keep your forearms stationary; only your wrists should move.
- Peak Contraction: Squeeze at the top of the movement, holding for a moment.
- Lowering: Slowly lower the bar back to the starting position, maintaining control throughout the descent.
Tips
- Keep your back straight and avoid using momentum.
- Focus on engaging the forearm muscles throughout the exercise.
- Ensure a full range of motion for maximum effectiveness.
