QUOTE(justin_5 @ Oct 29 2011, 06:27 PM) im sure you curl more than me.. maybe i should start curling light.. actually cable curls feels the best and gives me a ton of pump.. but unfortunately.. the cable in my college gym and a nearby gym is spoiled... only the rm7 per entry gym is working... ic... when ur curling using the ez bar.. does the same condition appears? or works perfectly on your wrist? i found something in google saying when curling with dumbells, when we actually turn out wrist on the way up. it is actually easier on the wrist altough it reduces the pump on the bicep... is it true? coz i dont mind having less pump as long as i can protect my wrist... bro dark.. i read previously that you do curls using cables... are there any reason in doing so? maybe something related to wrist and elbow injuring related to curls perhaps? cable curls give constant tension throughout the whole set. dont think hes doing it for some wrist problem.

@Justin I meant curl as heavy as you. Damn iPhone.
On a side note, i start with db curls, Uni cable preacher curls and end with barbell curls

Dude, you're lifting for yourself. Whether the guy beside you is lifting 20lbs or 200lbs is not gonna change anything in terms of your progress. No pressure.

Ye old compound versus isolates. hehe. Google that then you might understand the subject matter better. not to say that curls aren't important for development, its just that you have other more important things to focus. That being said, i need to ramp up my biceps. Triceps are growing faster instead!

Don't do his weight lah. 5kg also can do power clean. Even I'm doing that now.
