✅Â Starting position
[wp_ad_camp_1]
- Stand holding an EZ curl bar using a shoulder-width pronated (overhand) grip. Your knees should be slightly flexed, your arms should be almost fully extended, and the bar should be resting against your thighs.
✅Â Execution
- Keeping your elbows against your sides, exhale as you flex your elbows and raise the EZ curl bar towards your shoulders until your forearms are vertical.
- Hold for a count of two and squeeze your biceps.
- Inhale as you lower the EZ curl bar to the starting position in a controlled manner.
- Repeat.

✅Â Comments and tips
- Keep your body rigid and your elbows against your sides. Only your forearms should move.
[wp_ad_camp_5]
- Unlike what most people think, the EZ bar reverse curl targets your brachioradialis, not your biceps brachii. The reason is that holding the bar using a pronated grip puts the biceps brachii into a position of mechanical disadvantage, which forces the brachialis and especially the brachioradialis to work harder.
- The EZ bar reverse curl is great for building both your forearms and upper arms.
