Description

This exercise is essentially the same movement as a preacher curl, where arms are exercised in front of the body. But the main difference here is that your body is supported; the use of momentum or "cheating" is minimized. This exercise will really shock the long head of the bicep, as well the brachialis. You'll notice it allows for a very complete, full range of motion compared to other curl movements as well. To do this exercise, lie against an incline bench, with your arms hanging down in a horizontal line. Hold onto a barbell, and without moving your arms out of this horizontal plane, curl the weight up as high as you can. Like preacher curls, the bottom of the movement is where most force is placed upon the muscle, so don't skimp on going down all the way if you want the maximum benefit.
