yeah, I'm being careful with my back! Trying to at least

What is the difference between using the Reverse EZ and using cable or str8 bar?



I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Thanks Jen and P! It's kinda weird, I'm making better lifts now than when I was doing a ph cycle and with shorter rest time. But my chest and front delts are lagging behind not wanting to go up in weight like before

I'm thinking of cutting out BB Curls in favor of Incline DB curls. BB curls just hurt my elbows and forearms too much, not worth it. What does everyone think, can I build nice biceps w/out BB Curls if I stick with DB's?

Hey rock. What are you doing, updating in this journal... you have a new one

I dont think its a necissity to do BB curls.... Did you read that article about training your bicep to its fullest? They listed the Incline DB curls, and also a certian cable curl. If the BB hurts your arms, then there is not much you can do.

I love incline db curls!! Considering I hate bis! I hate doing preacher curls-BUT, I do them 1-2X a month only, to keep the variety going. Maybe try that with bb curls. Or switching up the distance with your hands-close grip/sometimes wide grip!

Premier- I'm not going to the other thread till Sunday! I was just preparing the way! Thanks for your advice

Jill- The only time I can do BB curls is when I do high reps, maybe I'll do it like that!
