Did some heavy curls today...

[chris_mason]

I believe the bar weighs 25 lbs so this is 185 lbs total.  This is the first time I have done EZ-bar curls in a while:

Put your back up against a wall and do that, you'll hit your arms better

Its likely that he's stronger than you

Wow!  Well, first, I have a video of me with my back against a wall curling 185 lbs on a straight bar for a single.  That was over a year ago and I am stronger now.  Next, the first few reps were done with pretty good form.  MONSTER jealousy by some.  Tell you what, any of you who are talking about the form and think you can come even CLOSE to duplicating what I did I challange you to do so.

......crickets.....chirp ing.....


Right, that's what I thought you morons. 

Tell you what, the next time I curl I will get a video with my back against a wall using the SAME weight and I will get at least 2 reps.

One more thing, have any of your cock-suckers (those making snide statements) ever seen anyone other than your 15" arms self curl?  You know, someone like Ronnie or Arnold or just about any pro with any semblance of strength?  Right, those with truly big arms almost always use a slightly loose form when performing heavy curls because they know it is the way to go.

Do you wish me to duplicate this lift with better form?

[TheAnimal]

Chris, were you training lower back?

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Means nothing if you look like shit. How many times do you see a guy alternating a pair of 60lbs dumbbells in a gym and his arms are spagetti?

Chris, we know that you are a strong guy but that little demonstration only showed how flexible your back is.

what if someone did dead lifts in an attempt to prove how strong their triceps are...what would that prove?

I know that you are smarter than that....

[Mars]

Maybe Chris likes to train biceps and back?

[Petrucci]

 i thought it was very good form considering the weight used...Im a very weak guy, but that its not little weight for sure...

WTF are you talking about TA? 

First, the form was not bad at all.  Let's see what you can do.

Next, why do you think it is that virtually all big and strong men train with a little bit of a loose style when curling?  The reason revolves around the physics of the movement.  The "sticking point" in a barbell movement is a function of the position of the barbell as it moves through space.  This sticking point is one of the drawbacks of barbell training but can be partially overcome using a style that is just loose enough to allow one to bypass said point in the ROM.  This allows for more work to be done and thus greater stimulation to the involved musculature.

So, like I said, I will prop my back against a wall and do the same weight for a couple of reps and then I challenge anyone on this site other than Lee Priest and perhaps a few other pros to do any better (yes, this means YOU TA and all of your Troll accounts as well as the other peanut gallery members).
