torque on your bones. they'll get stronger and eventually it won't hurt.

They put your wrists at an awkward angle and I get the same aches as you. Avoid them and stick to ez-curl bar ones instead, or do seated dumbbells.

Yeah that stuff is bad for you. Even straight bar benches and militaries are a little bit bad. Some day maybe we'll have big bars that provide a more neutral wrist position. (I know they exist for curls but we need em for everything)

Is there any advantage to doing straight bar vs. bent bar curls?

Bent bars are excellent for focusing on the peak of the bicep, whereas the straight bar curl is widely considered the best mass-building bicep move

No, I mean this seriously and not in a "dickish" sort of way. Atleast anything involving actual advice that is terribly, horrifically, uniquely, absurdly, perversely, grotesquely wrong. |

i dont like ez-curl bars. They dont feel like they work as much to me.
They prob are about the same though i mean your arm is going through the exact same motion. |

[/ QUOTE ] Pronation and supination affects the recruitment of the different muscles that comprise your biceps. It is also one of the functions of the bicep. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps_brachii_muscle So there is some value in doing a range of bicep movements, but wrist pain/health probably trumps all of the other concerns. This thread makes me kinda sad. Look at the information under where it talks about rowing movements and dynamic stabilization. Look at the pictures. |
