Are You Curling Too Much?

Well, chances are you curl too much. Here is an easy way to tell. When you curl make sure you keep your wrists straight. Majority of all males (because it is in our nature) lift a large amount during a curl because we want to impress not only those around us but ourselves as well.

If you find yourself bending your wrist during the curl make clear to your self that you drop you weight load a few pounds. The main reason behind keeping your wrist straight is the stress that it plays on your wrists and it takes away from the development of your biceps. You will read in many books that you need to bend the wrist others say keep em' straight. I strongly recommend to keep them straight.

• Straight wrists have less pain during and after the set
• Straight wrists allow more the bicep to work harder

There you have it, so remember you may look like a bad ass curl 50lbs but when you are bending your wrists you are robbing yourself of awesome development.
