slow and controlled with a squeeze >>> feels better and gives a way better pump than swinging s***

focusing on a slow controlled eccentric with strict form will do 10x more for your biceps than having weak form doing cheat curls, momentum involves shoulders too much. momentum isn't all bad but curls are something that really benefit from it the least

Got you and I follow. I do isometric bicep curls and slow down on release
Maybe I need to put my reps down when using heavierweights

Thank you!!

you're already there bro keep going! I only harp on this because I benefitted directly from changing my form/elbow placement and slowing down, for years my curl weight/biceps kinda plateaued but it didn't start going up until I really honed in on my form and eccentric and removed the sloppiness that it's easy to have when you're pumped doing curls. it seems backwards to do both less & slower at first but you really benefit from it way more, and now I do 6-8 reps of strict form with 40/45s iso

Been doing some variation of the jawns in this video...

Did upper this morning
Tempted to do legs after work
Instead of in the morning - where I can do upper again
How habits are formed or broken…

40/45s iso

This is insane well done dude

Do you use the machine assistance?

thanks man but it's honestly easy to get there by dialing it in, form can really bring you up 10 lbs on your curl atleast it did for me. and that's with dbs but I do love preachers and rope/machine curls like the ones lord alfredo posted. something that really helped my form quickly was doing 21s with a barbell or ez curl at a lower weight until you burn out, that s*** instantly forces you to lock in your form

creatine 5 grams daily
every blue moon i get citrulline and L arginine (helps with the pump) no caffeine.
You could also get citrulline from eating Watermelon before. Amazing fruit fr
maybe smelling salt if im challenging a PR since it kinda gives you an extra pep in your step before it.
Fiber supplement on occasion if that counts, but I think thats it for me.

At least with proteins concerned, I get enough from my daily food that I dont need shakes or bars, but my partner still has em in the pantry i think.

Started on a GLP-1 and I’m down like almost 8 pounds still retaining strength but it’s definitely getting harder each lift

Close-grip chinups, either underhand or neutral parallel grip with 3 second slow reps for just 8 reps, will set your biceps on fire most times too

I get some bicep activation during "Farmers walks" too

Zercher carry, Bearhug carry, Sandbag shoulder carry, yoke walk, and farmers walk today pray for me

till you cant do one more rep but also you got to think to for example dont train so hard to failure if you go to drive or you will fall asleep at the wheel in traffic

vitamin d vitamin k2 goes with vitamin d for absorption zinc magniseum and b6 at night before bed and creatin in the worming with d and k2 protien is 35 scoop its called isolete extreme 97 look it up

i do preacher curls but with a heavy weight say 75 for example put my hands in like a triangle and keep it closed grip do about 3x8 i do it on my knees for better control to they say it works the chest a bit but not that much
