great. another gimmick account ::)
Actually, he probably finds it quite useful. ;)
I am back down to 40's (don't laugh) but I can squeeze out 15 reps.
-
I curl 2.5lbs red dumbells in each arm for about 25 reps...then I max out on the 5lb blue dumbells for 10 reps
this is a special program that Milos designed for me..so far great results.
-
50pounds dumbells in YA FACE

Thats cool. Did you use the 45's? I could never pull that off, even at my strongest. :(

Biceps are all genetics.

We're supposed to use good form?! ??? ;)

Scott-Curls SZ-Bar, 8 reps with 155-165 lbs.
1 arm Curls on Hammer-Strength Scott-Bench, 12 x 110 lbs
Nautilus-Curl-Machine 19 x 185 lbs (170 lbs + 15),
Hammer-Curls seated, alternate, 11 x 95 lbs
Concentration-curls, 10 x 85 lbs
(only if 1. or 2. Biceps exercise).
-
I agree that is a totally irrelevant question .
-
The Getbig troll "Man Of Steel" claims to curl 110 lb dumbbells--with one arm. :-\ ::)
-
In a sense it is genetic if you are a natural, ive seen farmer types with huge forearms/wrists, curl a ton of barbell weight with strict form that most people couldnt do. It is hard on your wrists/elbows-i dont do barbell curls any more.
-
I agree that is a totally irrelevant question .
Why?
You can squat some nice weight, weight is not irrelevant.

on that note..do you guys feel it's kinda stupid to wrap your wrists when doing barbell curls to help ease the pain a little?! ??? I've never done it but, I've thought about it.
-

Because I can curl dumbells that u use for shrugs probably but my arms measure 40 cm
-

175lb on the ez-bar.
-
I found out that arms respond better when u focus on the muscle not the weight...
-
my arms measure 40 cm
That's only about 15.5 inches :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\
-

With all due respect, since your arms are not even close to 16 inches I doubt you've discovered what your arms respond best to... ::)
-

You're right, weight is irrelavent when you use fake plates.
-

see :)...I told u weight is irrelevant

my arms were as big as 19 inches cold witrh no fat so....there...I think I did
-
why would weight be any more irrelevant than size
-
I do concentration curls with the 200s
-
why would weight be any more irrelevant than size
Good point .The only thing that matters in my opp is how big they "look"
-
you guys must have something in your water in the usa or smth
i havent ever seen anyone curl more than 60lb and even that was some fat ass all drugs guy with horrible form (there arent that many juicers around here)
the max i curled is probably 45 for 6 or something. usually i train with light dbs 25-30 just to feel the muscle and the pump slow and controlled, i find working with too much wait produce little results
-

Big weight in good form = size.

When I used to work out at Golds I saw a lot of people doing sloppy reps with 60's and 65's. That was about the limit. Of course some of these blokes were pretty big.
-
Alot of people on here seem to be able to dumbell curl upwards of 90lbs. Hmm, i'm calling bullshit.
-
i Curl whatever the fuck weight i want to curl.
all you pussies having MAX weights and shit
FUCK THAT!! if i want to curl 70 lbs, ill curl 70lbs. if i want to curl 140 lbs, ill curls 140 fucking pounds!! feel me, DOG?
lol

-
115 barbell

-

You thinking that's impossible says a lot about your "physique".

why is it a useless question?
Because it encourages people to lift more than they can reasonably handle with good form. And when you lift with poor form, your progress will be for shit. (not to mention you'll probably injure yourself)
Like Bob Chick says, "It's not how much you can lift, it's how much you look like you can lift" (btw - that's the only time I'll ever agree with bob on anything)
Hope this helps.

Absolutely true, but you can't rely on low weight alone to grow.
-
180-190 for low reps on barbell curl
85-10 on dumbbell for low reps
oohhh thats smashing is that after you have benched 1000lbs with 400lb pre exhaust flys?

-
in my gym there's one guy who curls 80s or 85s, sloppy form, and he is all upper body
-
I usually curl about 65-75 lbs on the straight bar or ez curl bar. I always try to use perfect form and do them slowly.

whats that, one plate per side?
-
I can't BB curl anymore due to wrist problems but i can do hammer curls with the 80's for 8-10 reps if i do them first in the routine.
8)
-
whats that, one plate per side?
I usually put about 10-15 lbs on each side of the straight bar or a 25 on each side of the ez-curl bar (which I think weighs about 20-25lbs).
-
30 kilo/67.5 lbs each side of ez curl bar. 8 strict reps. :o
dont know how much the bar itself weighs.

thats fucking weak!
-
I curl like shit, but then again im more interested in building size rather than strength. dumbells: 45 tops/ barbells 120 max
6/8 reps minimal.
-
one arm preacher curls 60x 3x8
110 e-z bar 3x6-8

I used to curl more with a little more swing in my form. I am not really concerned about how much weight I can lift now; form is more important.
-
not much! but i can bring you done with my grip!
-
at my best i could do db curls 85 lbs for 8 reps and 100 lbs for 2 reps. pretty good form with 85s but not so much with 100s hahaha. i can only do 55s right now, havent lifted in awhile
-

-
;D hahahahaha

hahahahaha, i love how these clowns say, "a few years ago when i was juicing and 266 pounds i benched 500 for 8 and curled 150 pound dumbbells, now that i went clean and dropped 100 pounds i'm curling 27.5 pound db's but honestly i thought everybody curled 150 pound db's it's really nothing special" ;D
-
hahahaha, yeah 100 pound db curls isn't good, ok. ;)
i did the 100 lb for 2 reps with pretty bad form, which is not that good. had i done like 6 reps good form then it would be impressive. and 85 lbs for 8 reps isnt that uncommmon, i have seen several people do that.

i have posted my pics here before, i was pretty big, not ripped or anything. 5'10" 240 lbs and maybe 15% BF, when i was curling the 85s i was on a pretty heavy cycle, 1g test e, 600mg deca, 150mg drol.
-
I've never seen anyone get over 90lbs DBs with anything that resembles good form.
-
how much do you curl "big" guy
Uh, he only poses questions. ::)
-
Ive never seen anybody curling 85-100 pound dbells with strict form, except for on this board. hahahaha ;D

80 lb db curls here for 6 good reps
With 70 lb db's I can do a set of 8 reps with 3 counts on the negative

There is no point in any member posting any stats without pics and preferably video to support your claims....that is if you truly care about most Getbig members not believing your claims. Me personally, I could care less if anyone believes a word I say or not as it changes nothing about me.
-
I have gotten 185 straight bar for 2
Dumbell curl 80's for 6 each arm
hamer curl 100 for 8 each arm
