BICEPS

Barbell Curl

BeginnerBarbell

The barbell curl is a classic biceps isolation exercise. Holding a single bar with both hands adds stability compared to dumbbells and lets you focus your effort on lifting the weight. It's an effective, no-frills way to build biceps strength.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand tall and grip a barbell about shoulder-width apart with palms facing away, arms hanging near your waist.

  2. 2

    Brace your core by breathing in and tightening your abs.

  3. 3

    Bend your elbows to curl the bar up toward your shoulders.

  4. 4

    Keep your elbows at your sides and your spine still, without leaning back.

  5. 5

    Exhale and lower the bar back down to the start under control.
