Best Biceps Curl Hand Position: EZ Bar or Straight Barbell ??

[stefen0603]

I'm sure this guy has some fancy education, but I'll go to Scooby1961 where I can see the results of the advice I'm receiving.

[cjleger337]

isnt this a way to really mess up your elbows by fully extending? :/

[ramirv227]

Theres a reason this guy never shows himself shirtless and hides behind a windbreaker

[xMeshuggahx]

You can quite clearly see his biceps are engaged when using the ez curl bar.

[BrittaniLove54]

if u wanna get fit, simplefitness.info is where i should be at

[andrefaaa]

wow!! just heard some serious BS. pls go

[amitzur5]

Must See!!!

[shinshoryuken]

Actually given that Joe Sixpack has really weak forearms and pumped biceps this is a great exercise. The EZ bar curl is recommended AFTER you do the straight bar curls.

[8WaiWai]

the straight bar is bad for your wrist and not good so for bicep curls

the EZ bar is is not so bad for your wrist and good for bicep curls you got it the other way round dude.

[whiteboy535ful]

@8WaiWai no the ez bar is for pussies

[Zakariaseyfu]

Change your fuckingclothes

[JPHo911]

dame it ,that guy again !

[haboobon]

you should make a new video called "the best time to change your fucking clothes and take a shower"

[Worldwiderecorders]

What time of nickname is joe six pack wtf that sounds stupid

[eric28946]

@Worldwiderecorders time of nick name? i think you meant type..

[Worldwiderecorders]

@eric28946 Yeah type haha

[eric28946]

@Worldwiderecorders its a gay nick name lol

[angycharara]

lol any slower

[entourage94]

@daderbstedepp no hes focusing on negatives working the muscle harder. Up quick, down slow.

[secutorclaudius]

when i use a straight bar, or even ez, my elbows hurt. why?

[NoirHammer]

MRI images show that the straight bar targets the biceps to the max. Anything else is a waste of your time. This is science not gym talk.

[ahaedarabs]

fuck you

[paperpro3223]

Bullshit....I see Ronnie Coleman the Fucking king himself use the easy curl bar in alot of his sets...I feel like it's more of a comfort factor in the degree of bicep curls.

[dj4play1980]

I've got to say that in my case he is absolutely spot in this video, however that's not to say what is best for one is best for all.

In my biceps workouts the EZ bar is completely useless and therefore redundant.

[Shookwun09]

@daderbstedepp The eccentric portion(resistance when lowering) of bicep curl is much more crucial and important then the lifting portion for developing bulging biceps.

[maadd100]

his in so many vids, and almost all of them have more dislikes then like

[Killadonez]

mvlacrosse42 me to man me 2

[osibosi99]

i think its strange that people are actually listening to this guy, if i see a video of him with his shirt of talking then ill listen ! simple ! a baker does not teach other people to bake vie talking about it on a youtube video, He bakes the cake and then posts in on youtube !!!!!

[m21cerney]

Biceps are for fags and skaters let's just leave it at that

[KING0SISQO]

do the face joe LOL

[mirrorpiece]

this is fucking bullshit. Too easy on the bicep? please shut the fuck up. using EZ only forces your hands a LITTLE inwards so you dont get wrist problems. Using a straight bar is good. But its kinda tough to get it ALL the way up for your wrists. some people can, some people cant.

But har har har. Hear me explaining this to a guy who chooses chin-ups over pull-ups for lats. I am such a funny guy^^

[ec123456789able]

you and ''Joe Sick Spak'' need to get off YouTube

[mvlacrosse42]

Hi guys, I come on to youtube to lie about all my lifts so I can feel more secure about my self and pretend i'm impressing people who could give a shit.

[ArmenianBeatboxer]

twinmuscleworkout

[Toedoog]

What a bicep monkey that guy is. Also is Way too fast on the way up and too slow on the way down. I'm really doubting if 'Joe Six-pack' has any other developed muscle than his biceps.

[zaferkemer]

type in "give me 4 week abs" in the youtube box and click on the video with hearts in the title to learn how to get a 6 pack in 4 weeks.

[jean9910]

scooby1961 video is the best

[tjobtjobtjob]

i liked the info on the vid...

just disliked it because of the guy....

[glocksplosion]

I use EZ bar because my wrists don't feel like I have arthritis afterwards. To me, join protection is more important than rate of gain.

[seattle0002]

@glocksplosion I agree with you. He may be technically correct about not being fully supinated, but my wrists feel like hell after using the straight bar. It's just not worth it.

[TankoxD]

уебок блядь

[kertcobainSA]

shut the fuck up

[hardcorehouse]

Agree; the only disagreement is that the hands can in fact be that wide apart, or even wider, as long as it's a straight bar-wide or narrow simply affects different angles inner/outer of bis but both work.

[hardcorehouse]

Absolutely true, in regards to standing curls. The only ways to use an EZ curl bar effectively for biceps is to use the close grip area of the bar for preacher curls. That keeps the wrists sufficiently upwards to make it effective.

[oC00nz]

this guy has the most retarded build i have ever seen

[killer86442]

that "best bar he is using is made for curls.. dumbass.. lol my brother is a body builder

[SybilianShade]

I completely agree with this video. At first I thought the EZ-bar was the best way cause it feels more natural but it's just not true. It's an excellent way to lower the stress on your wrists though. I'm studdying to become a personal trainer and this is exacly what we are taught. The best way to target the bicep is by using --> dumbell < straight bar < EZ-bar.

[synpax2]

See my response video

And BTW - Biceps are most targeted when your palms are rotated outward, not straight up.

[slapmyfunkybass]

this just isnt true... the natural position of the hands when hanging down with the bar is to be slightly turned in... try it, it even feels unconfortable to straighten the hands... that was the whole point of the bicep bar in the first place....

[davethedm]

@slapmyfunkybass Natural position of the hands has absolutely nothing to do with attachment and origin points of the biceps brachii 

[MrFarover]

I DONT KNOW WHY HES TALKING BECAUSE HE HAS NO MUSCLES!!! FUCK U killingod98

Joe Weider has no big muscles too. Does that mean he cant talk about bodybuilding? -.-

[nmbr1gmr94]

i want to kill the fagget wearing the red wind breaker. he doesnt know how to workout. he works out like a 45 year old women. hes not even big. he should spend more time in the gym then doing bitch excersises

[nmbr1gmr94]

i want to kill the fagget wearing the red wind breaker. he doesnt know how to workout. he works out like a 45 year old women. hes not even big. he should spend more time in the gym then doing bitch excersises

[sanoichiro]

People use the EZ bar INCORRECTLY. It is very easy to acheive full supination with an EZ bar. Why can't people understand this. Just turn the bar 90 degrees so that the "W" is parallel with the floor. Wrists are turned up, you have a perfect angle for close AND wide grips. Your wrists are STILL saved from strain, AND... If your bar has a deep enough bend, you can do hammer curls with the same bar. Do I have to make a video to show you?

[wlcm2th3nfl]

@sanoichiro yes

[Takeshiii]

@sanoichiro

Please make a video to show us.

[LorenahLahMorenah]

jaja

[Gatanikaz]

haha, just remember that strate bar is going to hear like hell, when you frist start out, so my advise is to use an E-Z bar first

[GhostyxXx1]

look this two strong boyzz

youtube.com/watch?v=yPQBhV0C_0­A

[MrRepsie]

Bullshit!!!!!!!!!

[maxgraham6]

great biceps

[crocker480]

@maxgraham6 i want to lick his big rippling sweaty biceps then place my balls on his huge tounge

[weazle9844]

I just clicked this becasue of the picture I saw of the guy easy curling alot of weight

[girlsdrinkfeck]

i only use dumbells anyway ! traditional good all equal workouts to each bicep ,i rarely use bars on anything apart from like deadlift

[reptilelife100]

get a life



[vitto]

attack all the angles..EZ bar, straight bar, hammer curls, cables..burn your biceps. Just one exercise doesn't work at all.

[MutsuKazuma]

@vitto bullshit, only bodybuilders do those ridiculous endless biceps workouts, those that have zero strength and are simply bloated

[vitto]

if u attack all angles u are gonna be stronger than just using one exercise ..every exercise gives u size.

if u want use high reps.

[MutsuKazuma]

@vitto and high reps do nothing for your muscle size if you are not on roids

[vitto]

don't be so sure..it depends on your genetic type. High reps if u want the fitness type. The guy in the video do all kind of biceps exercises..with just that one never..lol

[LucasMeadows]

That guy looks really hard doing his bicep curlls. i wouldnt want to be bicep curled into submission by him. lol jk bicep curls are for faggots, do some squats you pussy, ass to grass everytime.

[MaTeOoo17]

5 kg kurwa?:DDDDD

[16cosgrove]

know u all see this man is smart he not going to big or to small so he could get speed if he wanted not like these fool trying to get as big as the fucking hulk

[Gravedig00]

Joe Six Pack, LOL!

[EuroPowa]

That gym, is absolutely fucking huge.

[Russaldo13]

In my previous video, I explained how to be retarded. But in this one, I will explain how to be the BEST retard.

[MrNickOnUTube]

hey take of the baggy clothing and show us yourself

[muzimuzi]

Wow look at thous hands! and all the 20 pounds his curling what a beast. yea i like how trainers got nice guns but zero weight thouse gunz can actually lift

[UncleSteven69]

@muzimuzi I might of misread what you said but they do it for showing purposes...They wouldn't lift their max to demonstrate something. They do light easy weight so they can show you form and everything else easier.

[muzimuzi]

@UncleSteven69 yea but i bet he cant "justifie" the size of his biceps he has really ripped even if not big biceps but i bet he cant curl over 80-90 pound at best, while i curl over 130 with same if not smaller hands

[UncleSteven69]

@muzimuzi At first I thought you were one of those...I'm 12 and can curl 150lbs but yet has no videos up but you're legit. Pretty impressive weight.

[muzimuzi]

@UncleSteven69 yea might've sounded like that but i learned not to "troll" if i havent got a vid to back it up =P

[pvsg1990]

ive never seen this guy done a exercise, but just talk.

[Tadjiknorg]

fuck bodibilding



[pimpstrike]

Kill yourself

[SkwerlBergamot]

bad form lol

[2ShaePussyCat]

Bent bar alsow contractis brachialis and brachioradialis muscles, wich straight bar doesn't.A bigger biceps alsow needs a big brachialis.I personaly like the bent bar more.

[Eightnorwayzz]

lol im 12 and i found this out myself three years ago!!

[behinddacurtain]

haha joe sixpack haha how awesome is that

[Mountain117]

I mad

[Rueda013]

slowmotion hahaha

[dom86juve]

why so many dislikes plus dislikes more than likes?

is he wrong?

[8159173]

@dom86juve majority of workout vids are, probably because there's lots of fat people on youtube.

[rhcpguitarar]

@dom86juve No, I think it's just because he's a douche bag.

[Saijo868]

omg this guy is everywhere...

[agaliareth78]

Ma che cazzo dice? E questo sarebbe un persona trainer? Fare il curl con la barra diritta significa affaticare e rischiare traumi ai polsi.Che consiglio del cazzo.

[outlaw83]

@agaliareth78

è vero 

[aeternusrest]

@agaliareth78 ma infatti non ho capito nemmeno io... dunque secondo lui farlo con la barra dritta non va bene? io l'ho sempre fatto con quella dritta! Forse intende... quando si inizia a sollevare pesi molto grandi bho (non capisco granchè bene l'inglese)

[agaliareth78]

@aeternusrest Lui dice che con la barra agolata non viene coivolto l'intero muscolo bicipete e che per avere la massima contrazione è meglio la barra diritta. Invece per non farsi male ai polsi è meglio usare la barra angolata e non è vero che non si sforza il bicipite nella sua interezza perché la posizione più comoda dei polsi consente di esaurire totalmente il muscolo.

[broddog100]

To be honest that wrong

[thestezie]

"A bent bar isn't bad its just not the best." Thats what she said.

[WZS0819]

Fag

[needtolooselots]

Thanx for the video!

[achmedfu]

not this guy again!!!!!!! -.-



[CWA1982]

havnt touched a bicep curl or tricpe extencison in months and my arms are fine, have proof if u dnt believe me

[CWA1982]

let me tell u beginners this,,,,,,believe it or not....compounds like benchpress and seated row will actually build bigger and stronger arms than any pussy ass isolation....un only use isolations because its easy easy easy....its human nature 2 go the easy way out! concentrate on a bigger bench press or a bigger deadlift or bentover row ect and ur arms will grow muscles where u havnt seen them b4!

[fesims]

Somebody should teach Joe that he isn't supposed to use his back when he's working his Biceps... Poor form leads to injury to yourself, unless you're dumb enough to use it in an instructional video, then poor form leads to injury to everyone who watches the video... all 2.7 million of them. Congratulations for putting nearly 3 million people at risk for back injury by using an inept demonstrator :-)

[swetygirlyy8808]

so I can't wait any longer! Rescue meh from my boredom

[ThisBeBigJohn]

@swetygirlyy8808 that aint you on that site... is it? and ur from modesto??

[hyperpup7]

I use striaght bar for curls and a bent bar for tricep extensions

[ziomal7747]

why the fuck you telling to do the wrong ways off exercising man haa go off youtube you because you boooooo shiter

[Ro5623]

straight bar kills my wrists...

[CWA1982]

@Ro5623 yeah of course it does, thats y they invented the e z bar, the angle of the bar will take the pressure of ur wrists, dnt listen to these guys videos, there clearly morons

[Joohris]

NOOOOOEEEES, NOT THE RED-JACKET-MAN AGAIN :(

[converseshoeboy]

stupidest video ive ever seen, this video makes soulja boy videos look like chemistry classes

[Chausboy]

could some of you guys please chekc out my workout video and tell what u think about it ? pls,i've worked hard for it :)

[swollenox]

umm hey dumbass stand firm dick, the e.z. curl bar is made so you can use the inner portion too, allowing you to do a closer grip, thus letting you get an even fuller rep. plus the e.z. bar reduces stress on your wrist... didnt know that did you? work out one day and you might learn something.

[TheBongo87]

well if I see any of you nabs stealing the bar from MY rack to do this shit you will feel the pain!

[PetterCR7]

if you wanna get ur lower arm injured, do it with straight bar.

[xtherealtm]

@PetterCR7 curling for over 10yrs with straight bar, and never got an injury in my lower arms?

[OskarOSA]

Ten gość co ćwiczy na filmiku wziął się teraz za synthol i jego łapa wygląda jak dupa :)

[rafaelrfq]

i hate this guy... seriously WTF

[dubyafifty5]

or stopping complaining and work out your whole body instead of being poons

[dubyafifty5]

or stop being frail suck it up and work out your whole buddy instead of being poons

[Avoirrr]

If you want to have an Big arm just train at your TRICEPS its 2/3 of your arm guys!!

[AmusingYeti]

Gotta love how everyone got butthurt by a paragraph i wrote. Shows you are gym brahs and cant handle someone insulting your precious bicep curls that you most likely do in the squat rack.

[57bigjoe]

My bicep routine varies but i have to admit that doing straight bar curls are the best.I find theres more concentration on the bicep creating more peak to it.And doing them slow is even better.

[Knicksfan97]

fight me

[MrCockSlut]

Actually the straight bar will probably do some damage after a while, especially if your lifting serious weight.

[13andincrediblycut]

Stay off the juice, people.

[the1stcroll]

wowww nobody take advice from this because this will tear your wrists if you fully extend. You need to fully extend to work the biceps the best but if u do then your wrists will tear, easy curl bar keeps ur wrists perrfectly in line and works the biceps just as hard (: subscribe if you wanna talk about anything fitness

[AmusingYeti]

@kkaamils "reputation"? Wow.. just wow. Also tell a body builder what you just said. Have them laugh at you..

[kkaamils]

@AmusingYeti hmmmmmm.... u deleted my comment!!!

[AmusingYeti]

@kkaamils How can i delete comments on another users youtube account? Bet you cant figure out how to open a jar lid.

[brendilicous]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAGGGGGGGGGGGG

[Tonyalvarado1962]

Amen!!!!!

[nzMantis22]

straight bars a bit harder on the wrists

[ZachariahM1234]

i do 100kg dumbells, for biceps

[kkaamils]

@ZachariahM1234 Wow!! and when you are done with ur last set, drop the dumbells right at the red jakcet man's head!! ;)

[edyperma2172]

it's over 2.6 millions views? because the red jacket man use others face in preview. oh my god please help this man.

[foxybrown2]

THAT IS NOT TRUE. YES YOU DO NEED TO TURN YOUR WRIST UP BUT USING THE BARBELL WILL SCREW UP YOUR TENDONS I WOULD DO IT WITH DUMBELLS BUT BARBELS IN THAT POSITION IS BAD ON YOUR WRIST AND ELBOW TENDONS.

[thefreak731]

@foxybrown2 dude what you just said made no sense at all lol

[pebopan]

j'aime trop



[edyperma2172]

what a boring disease ...

[chumbersdee]

I saw some dude at Bally Gym bench 970. And then just for kicks he said "Watch this", and he dropped it on his chest and his head exploded like in Scanners.

[Eddie2446]

I do agree with what he's saying it has taken me a long 6 weeks to build my 12' guns and I ain't hatin' it, for the first 3 weeks I used the Ez curl bar and nothing happened but in the last 3 weeks my arms have grown from 11 an 3/4 inches to a massive 12' and this friday night I will drink 16 budweisers to celebrate my conquest.

[CivicSiGuy2007]

bet half you fools on here think muscle fibers "rip" when you work them out too.. get a fucking education from a school and not a gym rat education were 90% of the shit you learn about in a gym is false.

[killingod98]

U MOTHERFUCKER

GOD I WANNA GET AN AK-47 AND SHOOT YOUR FACE OFF SO U CANT TALK

 U DICK

I NEVER WANNA SEE U AGAIN, EVERY VIDEO THAT SEEMS GOOD, HAS U IN IT TO MAKE IT WORSE

I DONT KNOW WHY HES TALKING BECAUSE HE HAS NO MUSCLES!!!

FUCK U

[Albian2405]

I HATE THIS GUY!!!!!

[tyronnebigumms]

"so what's the point?..a bent bar isn't bad, it's just not the best"..and that's one to grow on..lol..what a douche..

[kobasica]

great video. thanks

[muzimuzi]

@BuakawPpramuk Personally i hate him because of the misguidance pictures he puts on his vids. aside that i have nothing else against him
