Close-Grip EZ-Bar Curl with Band

Add band tension to isolate your biceps with an EZ-bar.

Track targeted arm gains in the FitnessTracker app with this smart variation on a classic curl. The added band tension increases difficulty at the top where your biceps are strongest, making this a great hypertrophy tool.

Instructions

  1. Attach resistance bands to each end of the EZ bar and step on the midpoint to anchor them.
  2. Stand tall with a narrow, underhand grip. Keep elbows tucked at your sides.
  3. Curl the bar upward, contracting your biceps and squeezing at the top.
  4. Lower the bar under control until your arms are fully extended.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of reps.
