    Barbell curl form

    In this picture below you'll notice his elbows are raised a bit (almost but not parallel) I used to do them this way and I was able to curl with more weight.
    But now I do them super strict with my elbows never leaving my side.




    How do you guys di them.

    I try to keep the elbows by my side, but towards the end of the set, they start to come up a little, although not as much as in the picture.

    Yes, that's Thib.

    I think I naturally tend to come up on the last rep or two, but I try to keep my elbows tucked for the majority of the sets.
    The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

    If I am doing rep range, I will keep strict form fro mstart to finish. If I am doing power, then I keep strict form until the last one or two where I might have to cheat a little bit to get failure on the last set.
