I always read that hammer curls work. When I actually start lifting I'll let you know.

-zottman's
-hammers
-use preacher bench with low pulley attached to straps-do curls like this but not with palms up do 'em with palms facing each other-SQUEEZE at top, do very slow negative

and using these three will give you fine brachioradialis development

actually, you, sir saltshaker, are correct....crossing the body during performance of hammer's only accentuates that exercise's effectiveness...bring dumbell up to opposite pec each rep

also a great way to involve and pump up triceps on downward neg...with contraction of tri at end of each rep

true,crossed the body like david henry of course works for him due to other factors,and for ego works due to increasing weight easily,but i never felt it as much as traditional hammers.

I prefer regular hammer curls. You can always use a bit of body motion to kick the dumbells up for the last 1-2reps

He is the man, plus just ez bar curls, not straight bar will work as well.  Charles knows his shit.
Known him for 7 years or more.

I do normal hammer curls until I cant do anymore in the set then bang out a few cross body hammer curls,they are easier to do,especially at that stage
