Upper arms vertical(elbows down) wrists straight: In proper top position curl hands are not near shoulders. As such, it provides good resistance. Elbows coming forward &/or wrists bending brings hands closer to shoulders, & gives the biceps low-or-no resistance. it's a resting position. Squeezing the biceps at this position is a volitional isometric contraction.It has nothing to do with the weight being used, & is generally a waste of time. This clip shows all of these breaks in form.
This exercise is being done with too light a weight and for way too long. And on top of that he's resting at the top and bottom positions-Hardly "Arthur Jones" style.
@lankatank Slow is more difficult so yes I agree with you I can do only do 3 good reps with 145 pounds but when with around 100 pounds it gets very hard past 10 reps espaicly if it's slow
@lankatank ..and I will also agree with you that if you are going to isolate biceps, this would be the way to do it. ;) Though I really do enjoy watching the hip thrusts and back hyperextensions that come with some fool flopping and bouncing his way through a set with weight thats way too heavy for them :)
kept performing the movements too fast to make it easier and to squeeze out extra reps, and kept pausing at the end of each movement allowing muscle recovery, again to make easier and too squeeze out more reps. There's an art to HIT mate this guy doesn't exactly have it yet.
why does this guy workout in a girls gym? Fast on the way up and slow on the way down. Also, ask any real pro fitness or bb and they will agree. YOu have to lift heavy weights to grow( on bulk or cut).
Next time don't go all the way up where you can rest and take the tension off of the biceps. Go only about 3/4 of the way up. Try breathing in and out as you lift and lower. Train the rest of your body parts the same way. For god's sake, train your legs.

Picture perfect form, but the set really shouldn't last much longer than 45-60 sec IMO

@25inchgun That's because you couldn't do it that slow. I can only do 10 reps doing a 25lb curl that slow.

Instead of going up slow and coming down slow, you should explode while going up and come down slow.

Great vascularity. Don't let the elbows swing out at the top. You are just resting the biceps and recovering.
