Best Lift of the Day.... Post in here!

Keep working at it spider curls are another great movement,reversing the pad and using it straight up and down, again forget about the weight concentrate on the movement.

the preacher at my gym has a flat side to it but I don't like using it. Just doesn't work well for me. it would work better with cables off the floor but the bench is bolted to the floor lol.

I think I'll try using a adjustable incline bench and working it that way.

they actually make slider curl benches but I've never seen one in person. They are a dying breed of machines like donkey calve machines, nautilus pullovers. in some ways the industry has gone backwards lol.

Ok kaz I gave it a go today. I used an ez curl bar. I tried a 35# on each side and it was a tad to much. U were right......less is more on this move. I dropped to a 25 on each side and did slow negatives and squeezed like hell at the top. Felt good!

I also did some spider like curls on the incline bench and that worked great! I'll stick with it for a while and see how I progress.

I did 3-4 sets on the preacher. Standing cables and got a gooood stretch. Finished up with the spiders.

Spider Curls used to be one of my favorite bicep exercises but it bothers my elbow (even if I go light) so I had to drop it.
