Any reason not to exclusively use this when curling?

Why?

>>77593100
You can use it exclusively if you rotate the grips to do bicep curls and reverse curls, but also gripping the flat part of the bar every once in a while since that part of your arm gets neglected with a ez bar.

What I normally do is reverse curls+bicep super sets with a ez curl bar and then every once in a while I'll do dumbbell preacher curls on my incline bench.

You still gotta get dumbbells anyways for hammer curls and lateral raises so but a ez curl bar is definitely a high value accessory and outside of my bench/normal barbell, it's my most used gadget.

Curl bar is also great for pullovers, skull crushers, overhead press.

You can go much heavier with a bar but dumbbells definitely get the better stretch. I can curl 105lb for reps with my ez bar but can't do 45lb with dumbbells. Also unironically a decent lower back workout if you do like 5 sets of both bicep and reverse curls with heavy weight.

Try doing cable pull downs using the 11 shaped attachment and having your arms directly above your head and your elbows facing out

and these are the people giving lifting advice on 4chan

If you already have one, sure, but it's unnecessary if you have a normal barbell.

Athlean-X covers this, you essentially want to supinate the forearm, which you can do with multiple equipment..

I got very long arms

Yeah unless you're a total beginner it would be way too light. At least add plates.
