Preacher Curl with Barbell Workout for Biceps

The Preacher Curl with Barbell workout helps you target the biceps. This high intensity big bicep workout will help you to develop massive biceps.

This exercise will help you focus your bicep workout. It forces you to limit your range of motion to just the limit you need to work the bicep muscle. It also prevents you from swinging your arms as you do when you do cheater curls.

The preacher bench helps isolate the biceps by locking the elbow into place. You can switch up the exercise by replacing the barbell with dumbbells. Whenever you see people with large biceps, you can bet they include the preacher curl in their workout. As i have already posted an workout plan for biceps,..refer. Breathe out when lifting the weights toward your body and breathe in when the weight is going down. The downward swing of the weight should be slow and controlled. You build larger bicep muscles on the downward swing.
