#Info – Reverse Barbell Curl
The reverse barbell curl targets the brachioradialis and forearm muscles, enhancing grip strength. Common mistakes include using too heavy a weight, which compromises form, and excessive wrist movement. To prevent this, choose a manageable weight and keep wrists stable. For beginners, start with lighter weights or an empty barbell to focus on form. Advanced lifters can increase weight gradually or use a slow tempo for added intensity. Consider alternating grips or using an EZ curl bar to reduce wrist strain. Maintain controlled movements to maximize muscle engagement and reduce injury risk.
