What's the best biceps exercise for maximum growth?
>>
>>76956054
Definitely not pic related, if your form is off you can grind through a tendon.
>>
>>76956054
I've done 1rm bicep curls before never had any issue, infact it felt even better than the normal rep range
It's 100% a roidtranny problematic of muscle and strength overgrowing your tendons
>>
>>76956074
>I've done 1rm bicep curls
what the actual fuck
>>
>>76956054
roids + any bicep exercise
>>
>>76956075
Take 25kg, concentration curls, not 100% rom tho i didn't stretch my biceps all the say down but think 165° angle or so
My working set on each arm is 17.5kg
>>
>>76956054
The best exercise to grow any muscle of your choice is to go to failure with 3-5 sets, 2-3 times per week, increasing the weight every week or 2 and being on a caloric surplus and high protein intake.
The exercise you do doesn't matter as long as you do this.
>>
>>76956075
>don't deadlift the weight on preacher curl
Sure it's more weight but you're basically putting all the tension on the ends of a few bicep fibers with your whole bodyweight. Try a wider grip and less powercleaning your bicep curl. I like leaning over more so it is the heaviest mid rep or so and go +-20% from there not trying to curl max weight.
>60+lbs single arm for some reps if heavy from 60lbs barbell feeling heavy 1.5yr before

holding a baby 8 hrs a day

Also doesn't happen on forearm grip/ezcurl much. Pec tears are also common from loading pec bench heavy while muscles are in megafucked state. As a natty I prefer doing a lot of 1-3rms that build tendons, but roided doing them to failure for the first lift is just not good. Gotta learn to rotate your joints so the load is evenly distributed.
>>
>>76956054
Straight forward controlled hammer curl sets of 4-6 reps every set to failure
>>
>>76956144
Failure every set, or just the final set?
This question seems to plague humanity and I've not found a definitive answer yet
>>
>>76956054
The kind you can progressively overload. Personally I like dumbell incline bicep curl

final set. the others are warmup sets.
>>
>>76956377
RIR every set.
>>
>>76956377
Answer is that it doesn't really matter as long as you're putting up decent resistance within a hypertrophic range
>>
>>76956144
found the science geek. None of that shit fucking works.
>>
>>76956561
Not him but you sound fucking stupid. What he said is what you should be doing
>>
>>76956054
I can barely do 30lbs dumbbell, bros...
>>
>>76956377
As close as possible to failure in every set, obviously every set will be less reps.
>>
Started isolating my arms pretty recently. Thoughts on bicep curls with fat gripz? Will it save me from getting elbow pain down the line? I was getting all my bicep work from pull ups.
>>
>>76956382
I like standing for all my curls for that constant full body tension. I hope it will all add up to a torso of titanium.

If you hit failure in early sets, you won’t be able to do the same amount of reps on the last set (unless you rest for like 10 minutes). If you fail on the last set, you’ve exhausted the muscle. It really doesn’t matter
>>
that's why you use the preacher curl machine instead of the free weight and stand up at the end of each set to lower the weight
>>
>>76956873
>quit training a crucial body part as a man because of other people's stupidity

lol, couldn't be me
>>
>>76956890
no, that's why you use ez bar instead of straight bar
straight bar puts way too much stress on the tendon, it's a completely unnatural angle to bear load like that
>>
>>76956914
It's always preacher curls too lol
>>
>>76956924
>it's an unnatural angle to pick something up with your fingers, rotate it, and hold what's between your fingers to your face to look at
>therefore, I, anon, am saying that it's an unnatural angle to lift something to your face with a palm up facing movement

>>76956890
you know you could just lean a little bit forward to get the same max stretch of the biceps for isolation right?


are you two fucking retarded or something?

might be right about the tendon thing if you're talking about the wrists though... but maybe stop having bitch wrists?
