The EZ Bar Drag Curl targets the biceps, emphasizing the long head. By dragging the bar along the torso rather than curling outward, this exercise enhances arm development and definition. It's particularly effective for isolating the biceps while minimizing shoulder involvement, leading to better muscle activation and growth.

How to do it

  1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding an EZ Barbell with an underhand grip.
  2. Keep elbows close to the torso and wrists straight throughout the movement.
  3. Drag the bar up by pulling elbows back and up, keeping the bar in contact with the body.
  4. Squeeze the biceps at the top, then slowly lower the bar back to the starting position.
  5. Repeat for desired repetitions, maintaining a controlled motion.
