Listen all !

This is for those who dont know !!.......

Wide Grip = INNER HEAD!

Close Grip = OUTER HEAD!

And ordinary straight curls works the both ( Inner and Outer) head!

And THIS IS TRUE KNOWLEDGE! So everyone who are still confuced after my post,...... LOOK IT UP on GOOGLE OR YOUTUBE! :D

[welterweight13]

@gangizta This guy just said wide grip works the outer part of your bicep while you said wide grip works inner head, so whos right? fuck :(

[webeducation]

Wide Grip Bicep Curls work the overall head of the bicep. It is the best exercise to build mass for the biceps.

Concentration Curls work the outer head of the biceps.

Hammer Curls works the inner head of the biceps. Also works the forearms as well.

I double checked with the Arnold Encyclopedia because I think the guy knew something or two about building the biceps.

[blastbeatsable]

I'm not on steroids, check the page for a semi-legit bicep curl video :)!

[happydancer2009]

OH FAIL, this works the inner dude.

[mjamesb80]

Wide grip stresses the inner head of the bicep!

[ataydinho60]

thank you for your ongagement

[actionfigure23]

This exercise works inner Bicep!!!!

[cedie12345]

WIDE GRIP = INNER BICEP???

U SERIOUS??

[skepsys]

hey all

i've been recently diagnosed with scifosis and kiphosis (i am 27yrs old) and been told never in my entire life to do these type of exercises at the gym. this was a very bad news to me because i was just starting to enjoy fitness and weights (moderate weights of course) and was planning to do it for a long time beacuse it improves my phisical appearance a lot.

can someone give a word of comfort?

[fake14sam]

@Skepsys ... Do bodyweight training instead (pushups, pullups, situps etc.) you caan get in good shape if you do them well.. YOU CAN DO IT (my attempted pet talk) x)

[bigtraum1]

yeah DO NOT swing ur back!!!! i had 2 learn the hard way... all that comes of it is pain and set back...

[zycan]

lmao, expert village fucking sucks...so much for the "experts" who don't know SHIT from shoe polish

[imgod4]

shut up every one... jrpimpdog waz arnie's trainer...

go jrpimpdog...

we will all cum to hospital 2gather...

[imgod4]

hard to admitt, but crackr u r right dude...

and jrpimpdog try swinging ur back..

i'll see u in hospital..

sayonara.. :-P

[crackerHero]

never swing your back trust me it fuckin hurts

[jrpimpdog]

You are supposed to swing your back to use more weight and build more muscle. this guy is retarded.

[bigstickcop]

No you're not you homo. NEVER swing your back into your workout. FYI it's better to have people think you're retarded than opening your mouth and proving in.

[jrpimpdog]

Hey dipshit, how the fuck do you think Arnold got his muscle. Its called a cheat curl dumbshit. You are supposed to swing your back. This builds more muscle by using heavier weights. If you just use lightweight and do strict curls, it will only give you pump and not tear down the muscle which is what you want, so it will grow back with a few recovery days. You obviously don't know shit about weightlifting so you shouldn't be commenting about it, contradicting people who know more than you.

[fdfd434343]

@jrpimpdog I doubt swinging your back helps you build more, but i do know for sure that improper form increases your risk of injury.

[jrpimpdog]

Put it this way, you are not going to build big muscle by using the heaviest weight you can without moving your back. Once again, its called a cheat curl. Cheat curls build more muscle than strict curls.

[enexti]

@bigstickcop noo!!! let the guy injure his back (:

[dominicanfigure169]

BURN! i love that last line.

[mizASS]

u'll get back injury u dumbshit if u swing ur back... retarded

[jrpimpdog]

@mizASS No you won't if you know what your doing. Its called a cheat curl, but you probably don't know what that is, which is why you should stop commenting when you don't know shit about weightlifting.

[mizASS]

@jrpimpdog ure the retarded guy here... lol

[b10ilal]

ohhhh myy lorddd r u serious when performing wide grip barbell curls u fell it in ur outer bicepss ur the dumbest guy well i guess when u do lower back exercises u feell it in ur arseee u pussyy i hate ppl like u who give rong advicessss

[diablodude18]

im pretty sure this is wrong. wide grip does inner biceps

[UnbreakableSpirit]

Yeah, everywhere I go, they say wide-grip is for the inner part of the bicep and close-grip is for the outer part of the bicep.

[diablodude18]

ye thas wat i 4t. but im not reli sure now. some people are saying the opposite so its left me :S

thing is im reli good at wide grip and i have big inner biceps

[dokokai]

When did Carlton get so buff?! Or is that Todd Bridges? I'm not sure.

[canadaboy33]

lol another shitty lesson from expert village!

[talibq]

I guess the roids didn't help too much your losing breath

[USAmartialartss]

you think this guy is using?

[talibq]

maybe

[ITheGMan23]

yeah sure...

[cooldudethegreatspy]

damn! his veins are bursting like hell. man this guy is one bodybuilder!.

[diderr01]

close grip works outer dummy.

[LaminaDieWills]

I think thats why he's demonstrating a light weight, form is more important than stacking heavier weights on everytime, without proper form you wont achieve good muscle definition etc.

And about bloating. If your eating anything with white wheat flour in it, processed fats, artifical sweetners like aspartame or flavour enhancers like mono-sodium-glutamate etc, your gonna get bloatedness...that doesnt go away.

One thing that does point to roids, was the fact he was out of breath. bad sign!!!

[r190c192]

haha idiot it points to cardio. . get it right cz ppl take comments for tips

[LaminaDieWills]

Haha dinlo, a true fit bodybuilder shouldnt be that out of breath lifting such light weights with his size...oh, and for those who think weight over laps form, think again, id like to see how many of you have good definition with stupidly heavy weights and zero form. and also, those things i listed, create serious bloating when taken with carbs. get a clue!!!

[r190c192]

you can see hes a bodybuilder noone said anything bout being fit so thanx for backing my comment you dick.. points to cardio!

[LaminaDieWills]

backing your comments??? what so you reckon then that a body builder should be that out of breath EVEN after cardio working on light weights?? er...do me a favor...get a clue!!!

[PriceGetsItDone]

Dude. look to your right of the screen at the "More From: Expertvillage" & look at how many workout vids this guy did in the one day. Anyone would be out of breath, & besides, He's barely out of breath. Get a clue!!!

[Footube82]

Witch grip makes my biceps STRONGER: Wide grip or Close grip?

[shahzains]

masturbating grip

[adamrocks2006]

wtf what ever that was made me smile :)

hehehe

[G3XRevolution]

@shahzains always.....

[DaBEARS4real]

This is a difficult exercise. If you do not use a perfect technique, it won't do anything for you. It is really hard to stay balanced and use just your biceps and not the back.

[Mongoelg]

Wont do anything for you? Are you serious?

That's pretty funny. The biggest and strongest guys also tend to be the ones with the most loose form on a lot of exercises, because they worry about moving a shitload of weight, instead of doing 100 sets with the bitch weights with super-strict form to "feel the burn man".

[AzumaSmoke]

Regardless of his misinformation, if he did both inner and outer properly he'd still be able to build muscle and build both heads. Which is why he does have nice arms.

The truth is though, the close grip works outer, wide grip works inner.

A common mistake the average person makes is not doing close grip curls which is why the outside of the bicep looks small and undefined compared to the inside.

[fabioandrafael]

The wide grip barbell bicep exercise hits the short head of the bicep not the long head. So beginners to bodybuilding please don't believe what this guy is telling you in this vid.

[kage675]

i juz bought a curl bar with 2 twenty pound plates, i was wondering what the closed grip works out and what the wide grip works out??? and does it matter which one i do???

[samlovemetal]

Closed grip works inner head. wide does outer head. Those are the two parts of your bicep, if you want good balanced arms and want to avoid injury. Yes it matters which ones u do. do both.

[LowKeyEqualsSurvival]

the wide grip works the outer part of your biecep and the inner grip works inner ball of your biecep. Just image your biecep split into 2 halfs.

[69chunkylover69]

you are wrong

[marcus38447226]

man expert village fails again, this will not work the outer part of the bicep! it will work the long head, this is the part of the bicep which is closest to your torso! who is this clown?!

[toolboox]

good job for the anabolic steroids

[conorcarr1984]

as barbell curls go, a narrow grip (less than shoulder width) works the outer bicep head, while a wide grip (greater than shoulder width) works the inner head. Shoulder width curls hit both heads equally well

[yasinpatel12345]

you got good arms G thanks for the info

[barky18]

calm down blud! yh he is giving the wrong advice using a close grip targets the long outer biceps head to develop a better peak!!!

[mikegarlicbread]

r u sure it hits outer side of biceps? i heard the opposite. can someone confirm it pls

[AshwinWR83]

it does, i can feel a burn around that area of the bicep when i do these, less weights more reps work better

[YoungJeezy333]

yes it does the outer!

[nolanj23]

yoU'RE correct, wide grip hits inner head; close grip hits outer...All bodybuilding books, including Arnold's, cnfirms this.

If you have shoulder impingement issues I'd recommend doing preachers with your elbows in close and conentrating on squeezing it up...you'll feel immense pressure n burn on the inner head, make certain to squeeze at the top for your peaks.
