do you keep your body still, maintain neutral spine, face up and slight bend on the knees ?

u mean during the bicep curl?

yep im sure i did these :

keep body still, yup
maintain neutral spine, yup (jangan bongkok)
face up, yup (i always look at the mirror)

slight bend on the knees....i didn't. perhaps i shud work on this...i thought one must stand straight one? hmm.gif

I bend my knees slightly (just not locking them) in most of my standing exercises. It gives me more stability.

Do a search on Google (how to do standing bicep curls) most will point out to bend knees slightly.

just talk to my officemate, surprisingly he said the same too! shrug and bent row....

i gotta to admit, shrug is kinda easy for me to do with a correct form, but im having a hard time to do barbell bent row...yup, the bent part.

I used to do BOR, my arms gave way first. My lats doesn't activate with this. I switched to one arm DB rows. I feel contraction throughout the set (except the last 2-3 reps where the lats are burnt out).

yes, the form is not straight up straight down. It's down slightly forward, up slightly backward (elbow up). Don't have assisted machines for chini?
