Barbell Curls

Muscle group: Biceps
Step 1: Stand with your feet about shoulder width apart. Hold the bar with both hands, arms extended downwards, gripping the bar with your palms facing up.

Step 2: Lift the bar using elbows as the pivot point. Along the motion, slightly draw your elbows back to allow the bar to move in an arc fashion.



Avoid this mistake: Make sure to keep your back straight at all times. It has been observed that during this exercise many individuals swing or bend their back unintentionally. Not only does that decrease the effectiveness of the workout, but also hinders in optimum muscle growth and also causes lower back pain in the longer run.

Step 3: Slowly let the bar down and move the elbows in their natural position. Repeat.
