>Also who the fucj curls dumbells instead od a barbell?? LMAO
...so u dont bias one arm by accident?
also dumbbells make ecentric overload cheat curls easier!!
It doesn't matter how heavy the weight is. If you curl 45 with your elbows swinging and shitty form it's just as dyel as curling 20 with your elbows swinging and shitty form. Stop worrying about how much you're lifting and worry about how you lift. If your form is perfect, 45 mogs most people in the gym.
more or less this. full ROM and high intensity is what gets hypertrophy, strength is a meme when you're an OSHA certified forklift operator first in line to become a pro mobile suit pilot in 15 years
ho shit how are you guys curling so much?? i can curl 58 kg for 10 with a bar but with dumbells i cant curl that much, the only person i have seen using more than 45 lb or 20 kg in curls was using a shit ton of momentum to get the shit up
my standing dumbbell curls are three sets, 25's, 30's, 35's. I have long arms so it kind of sucks but once they get bigger they'll look good. I just started doing them more, I was doing them like every 5 days
yes what? what the frick are you guys talking about how doing 45 lb dumbell curls is dyel ?
Damn man i must have missed the troll online gathering that is going on right now. Becouse or you are all trolling hard or you actually pendulum lift the weight with your backs and not your biceps. And if so, What good is it for the biceps lifting it with the back? i mean it is okay when you allready reached failure with a weight you can actually rep but if you can not rep it you are a fricking moron if you do that.
Anyway 20 kg for biceps curl is fricking awesome, SPECIALLY for 6 months.
(i lift that and i can curl with bar 58 kg for 10 reps on a good day)
Curls are one of the most cheated on exercises, if you're swinging your whole body getting it up with momentum like all the dyels I see then it's shit.
It's whatever. I know people with biggest arms that curl 30lbs and on the same note I know people who curl 70-80lbs with similar form and have much smaller arms. It's not a very good indicator of anything.
>giving a shit about weight on accessories
If I'm just throwing in some extra volume after working back I'll curl light weight for high volume. Weight doesn't matter when my arm is pumped and veins are popping and looking sweet.
When I first got to 16" arms lean I was definitely curling less than 45lbs for most of my arm workouts. I could do more at the time, just didn't need to.
I always wanted big arms so I cheat curled 40s even when I was a noob back in 2013. To this day I'm still stuck at 50s lol maybe 55 if I cheat abit. At least 40s are light now
I curl >145lb on the cable machine x10 >100lb standing barbell x10 >85lbs preacher x10 >35lbs dumbbell hammer x10
is this good? I added curls to my routine in april and started at 60lbs on the cable machine and have worked up from there. personally I prefer cable curls but sometimes I mix it up if its busy.
you can bring your arms a little bit on front of you, the elbows it is, but just dont twist on your spine like you are some worm from man in black or jimmy earthworm or whatever. Basically dont be a worm gay
Curl my nutsack
Not at all. It's a good amount to curl
Don't lie to him
Also who the fucj curls dumbells instead od a barbell?? LMAO
Hol up... dyels actually do barbell curls instead of dumbells??? Lol lmao even....
I can't hammer curl a curl bar without it being super awkward. Some people train more than just short head.
>Also who the fucj curls dumbells instead od a barbell?? LMAO
...so u dont bias one arm by accident?
also dumbbells make ecentric overload cheat curls easier!!
>he doesn't do unilateral work
What a waste of potential gains
>t. salty that I'm dumbbell curling his barbell curl max
Get the word "it varies" tattooed on your forehead, post pics, ask question again
I bicep curl 75 lb dumbells, but only bench 30 lb dumbells...
I dumbbell bench 35 lbs 18 reps 3 sets
I curl 22.5 in sets of 15,15, and the last is 12
I do dumbbell spider curls with 55 pounds. I've been lifting for a year. Am I gonna make it?
It doesn't matter how heavy the weight is. If you curl 45 with your elbows swinging and shitty form it's just as dyel as curling 20 with your elbows swinging and shitty form. Stop worrying about how much you're lifting and worry about how you lift. If your form is perfect, 45 mogs most people in the gym.
Stfu with this insanity
Cheat Curl or no Curl
That goes for all of you
form will take you significantly further with curls than more weight
>45 mogs most people in the gym.
nope
80lbs mog people
Post video of someone curling 80lbs with correct form and full ROM. Doesn't even need to be you. If they're not natty don't waste people's time.
more or less this. full ROM and high intensity is what gets hypertrophy, strength is a meme when you're an OSHA certified forklift operator first in line to become a pro mobile suit pilot in 15 years
i dropped 10lbs and did more reps with better form and acquired more gains
>160lbs curls is standard for fit
yeah, should have realized most of fit is professional armwrestlers
>his arms aren't as fricked as Larratt's
NGMI.
Depends of your form and level of control
ho shit how are you guys curling so much?? i can curl 58 kg for 10 with a bar but with dumbells i cant curl that much, the only person i have seen using more than 45 lb or 20 kg in curls was using a shit ton of momentum to get the shit up

They are lying
let's see some videos of your DB curls guys come on
I imagine most people claiming 50lb curls are either 300lbs or are swinging dumbbells.
Is 125lbs on a preacher curl machine good or bad? I figure that's about 60ish on each arm. My ceps are not even that big.
>Is 125lbs on a preacher curl...
That's pretty good, do you do wide or close gri-
>...machine
DYEL?
cope, you're just weak.
I have 15" arms and I curl the 50s with good form.
Post body weight
150lbs
I'm a 5'5" manlet though. So now I know that's gonna be your excuse for why I'm strong
yes, do double progession when working out smaller muscle groups.
Basically, start out on a weight where you can do perfect form for 3x8. If you're able to every set succesfully. Add one rep next session.
Continue until you hit 3x12 without fail.
Then add weight, and restart on 3x8.
double progression very based gains
yes what? what the frick are you guys talking about how doing 45 lb dumbell curls is dyel ?
Damn man i must have missed the troll online gathering that is going on right now. Becouse or you are all trolling hard or you actually pendulum lift the weight with your backs and not your biceps. And if so, What good is it for the biceps lifting it with the back? i mean it is okay when you allready reached failure with a weight you can actually rep but if you can not rep it you are a fricking moron if you do that.
Anyway 20 kg for biceps curl is fricking awesome, SPECIALLY for 6 months.
(i lift that and i can curl with bar 58 kg for 10 reps on a good day)
>MY RESULTS ARE ENOUGH
this is not how you build muscle. PROGRESS is never enough.
You get the gains you DESERVE
Not at all. It's very good. Keep it up!
You don't need to curl much more than 45s ever if you're natty
Anyone who lifts less weight than me is DYEL and anyone who lifts more weight than me is on gear.
Does it make your muscles feel burn before 20th rep? If yes then no.
Curls are one of the most cheated on exercises, if you're swinging your whole body getting it up with momentum like all the dyels I see then it's shit.
it's light.
eat more, you're probably small
depends on your weight, height, form, political ideology
I curl 17.5lb dumbbells
Once every 8 days, 3 sets, each to failure. Ultra strict, slow eccentric, I go to full static and eccentric failure each set
6’4 with big biceps
Forgot pic
feminine wrists
Let me guess, you’re fat
Dyel
You tell me,
I’m happy with my physique, 6’4 195lb
I reiterate DYEL, Hop on a real gear cycle then we'll talk
Utoh someone stirred up a roider again. Look out, he might murder his wife and baby then commit suicide.
1 he didnt kill his baby shes fine
2 he didnt kill himself the cops executed him and said it was a suicide
They're referring to Benoit anon not avg Bosnian
>1 Nothing wrong with me
>2 Nothing wrong with me
FTFY
SOMETHINGS GOT TO GIVE
"you're tall and white, take steroids" stfu
Do single arm curls with a barbell, it's only 45 lbs but the torque will get ya.
I can only do 4 sets of 10-8-7-5 at 40lbs. Should I drop my weight until I can do 10*4? I only started lifting a few weeks ago.
I don't even know how much I can curl, maybe like 16kgx8 if my arms were completely fresh and I get lots of compliments on my arms.
yes it is very typical for dyels to use way too heavy weights when curling.
It's whatever. I know people with biggest arms that curl 30lbs and on the same note I know people who curl 70-80lbs with similar form and have much smaller arms. It's not a very good indicator of anything.
Literally starter weight, half a year you should be at 60, 55 MINIMUM so to answer your question yes its dyel, very dyel
>giving a shit about weight on accessories
If I'm just throwing in some extra volume after working back I'll curl light weight for high volume. Weight doesn't matter when my arm is pumped and veins are popping and looking sweet.
What is your weight?
I curl 35lbs for 10+ reps and my arms still look skinny as shit
When I first got to 16" arms lean I was definitely curling less than 45lbs for most of my arm workouts. I could do more at the time, just didn't need to.
I always wanted big arms so I cheat curled 40s even when I was a noob back in 2013. To this day I'm still stuck at 50s lol maybe 55 if I cheat abit. At least 40s are light now
I guarantee 98% of you gays can't even curl 30lbs without shit form and rom.
I curl
>145lb on the cable machine x10
>100lb standing barbell x10
>85lbs preacher x10
>35lbs dumbbell hammer x10
is this good? I added curls to my routine in april and started at 60lbs on the cable machine and have worked up from there. personally I prefer cable curls but sometimes I mix it up if its busy.
How to curl properly? I try to lock my elbow by my hip but i dont know if thats right.
Now i feel like ive been cheating when i curl 30s.
you can bring your arms a little bit on front of you, the elbows it is, but just dont twist on your spine like you are some worm from man in black or jimmy earthworm or whatever. Basically dont be a worm gay
20 kg db in 6 months is pretty impressive
I love training arms , the max I do on db curls is with 28 kg db's , plus weighted strict chinups always gets me massive pump on arms
