Right now at 220

Db alternate standing curls with pretty good form 70sx12,75sx6
Db hammers standing 100sx6

In the past at 255

Straight bar curl 185x12,205x5,225x2 owner of golds gym Medford mass said when he saw me doing that the only other guy he has seen curl that much was matarazzo at the Everett mass golds as he owned that one as well.
Ez bar curl 205x10 little loose
Alternate dbs 95sx5 little loose
Hammers 120x10

Have went higher when I was 275ish but don’t care for that weight so don’t talk about it.

Believe or not could not care less.

You'll be curling up into the fetal position when I catch up with you, boy.

Probably could get about 6 reps at 60kg/132lbs on a good day with a little bit body English especially on first rep which always seems to be the hardest on straight bar curls

What else can you do in your dreams, Pamith? Can you take your T-shirt off and see a six pack?

Heavy BB curls are a good way to fuck up your wrists. Make sure you use the EZ curl bar to help.

I think the heaviest i went many years ago was around 200 pounds. Standing with a little body swing.

I prefer DB curls and on a good day can curl the 80's while seated for 8-10 reps.

Impressive lifts. If you don't mind me asking how was your physique? Did you look like a bodybuilder, perma bulker, or strongman?

I always wanted to be able to curl 135 like a boss but 95x8 or something equally unimpressive was my max

E: to be clear, I never maxed out bc body English would take over and make it a bad lift so 5-6 reps was as low as I’d maybe go

That's incredible if true - isn't the world record somewhere between 250-300? Great lift, Rob!

Same here, PV.

I've curled 65-lb dumbbells for a half decent three reps per arm [while on cycle in 2006, if I'm not mistaken].

I've also curled 105-120 for reps...but I think arm curl strength is pretty strongly genetic, and it's the one lift that never really went up much past my early gains. Perhaps if I went up in body weight they would.

I was curling 85-lb on the Olympic bar two weeks ago.

I'm going to use perfect form this week and shoot for the "mind muscle connection", and do a final set with 95-lb, just to see what I can get.

But as long as my form is sound and focused, I'm not going to worry too much about the numbers - I'd like to bring my arms uota bit, and arms aren't that important for overall strength, so I think I will be training them mainly bodybuilding-style this year.

Weird most are against strong big arms, I tell ya I have benched a little over 500 and I’m more proud of the curls over 200 than benching 500.

Also I’ve torn my pec and both calves but never a bi.
