How To Do Barbell Bicep Curls

 
 
This is a great compound exercise movement for the biceps. Primary muscles used in this exercise are the biceps. Secondary muscles used in this exercise are the forearms, deltoids and the traps. 
 

 

 
To perform barbell curls grip the bar a little wider than shoulder width apart. Curl the bar upwards making sure you keep tension on your biceps throughout the whole movement. Lower the weight down in a controlled slower manner.
 
Use your body's natural motion during this exercise, meaning do not be too strict or rigid on your form. Work with your body's mechanics instead of against it.
