    Curl one with both arms to get a pump going as warm up. Use one arm to curl as hard as you can with a single arm. Use the other arm to assist with the least amount of assistance necessary in order to complete the movement. Let go and allow the arm to naturally fall while resisting, performing negatives. Make sure not to assist too make or it will defeat the purpose. Do several repetitions of this. Make sure both parts of the curl are extremely difficult to do. Your arms should be jello by the end, almost incapable of curling anything. You'll be able to curl them one handed in no time

    Dude I started with 5s and now I'm using 17s but feeling like I need to go buy heavier ones soon, just go and buy lighter ones. You can buy 5kg hex plastic+sand dumbbells on Amazon for nothing. Also yes I did cheat reps but I would only add weight/reps once I had good form, not just continue doing additional cheat reps. They're fine as long as you progress to perfect form before adding more to it.
    Stop putting hurdles in your way it's all in your mind, drop the ego and drop the weight first then work up to your 15kgs.

    bro 15kg is a fricking lot for a dyel to curl, youll need 1-2 years until your can eventhink about them, if you start skelly mode. I started with 3kg dumbbells and they were heavy for me.

      I remember getting a pair of 35lb dumbbells at junior high school, couldn't even curl it once and never curled ever after that attempt.
      Then I started doing tons of pushups which somehow strengthened my biceps enough for me to curl them for sets of 5 strict

          The biceps stabilizes your push exercises so they do get a tiny bit of work

    You can't curl 15 kg for one rep? Do you get tired when eating from lifting the fork to your mouth?
