Just curious which curling exercise is best for mass building. I am currently on a bulk diet. I usually do 3 sets for my biceps. I like either heavy bar curls or incline dumbbell curls. I curl both arms at the same time. Really hits my bis good. I use pretty heavy dbs for my strength. 6-8 reps.
 
Straight Bar curls are the best for overall mass.

either standing bb curls or EZ-bar curls. I alternate them every other bicep workout
 
Well, you have to mix it up...recently I like heavy 1 armed DB curls> spotting & forced reps w/the free hand, also Inclined DB Curls
 
super slow DB curls after 10 sets of latts
 
i love standing cambered bar curls with the wider grip...also...with the close grip...standing...heavy..and make sure ur using ur freaking biceps
 
Thanks for all the exercises. I tend to use my back when straight bar curling. Thats why I stick to DBs. I will try more straight bar with less weight.

For me, it's concentration curls. Gives me a good height, width and length.
 
concentration curls are not a mass builder IMHO. They're great for building peak!
 
there is no "building a peak" or adding "height or width" other than just making your muscles bigger. their shape is due to genetics, you cant change the shape of your muscle belly.
 
thats bull$hit. Hitting a muscle with different grips and varying degrees of angles achieves different results.

Shit!!!!! This is the best bicep exercise to me! Is good to get a good stretch though. Stretch the bicep to make it grow! :thumb:

Try leaning back against a wall and bending your knees slightly.
(heels about 6 - 8 inches from the wall). This will take your back out of it.
