Bicep Curls Are Dumb. Stop Doing Bicep Curls.

Bicep Curls Are Dumb. Stop Doing Bicep Curls.

I haven’t discussed it much on this blog, but fitness has become a bigger part of my life in the last two years or so. And like every fitness neophyte, I did set after set after set of bicep curls in the hopes of getting “ripped.” Turns out, I had no idea what I was doing. (Not surprising for me.)

Now two years later, after reading more and more about fitness, I’ve come to realize something: bicep curls are dumb. If you have a desire to have arms bigger than your head then the bicep curl is a great exercise for you. It’s almost strictly a vanity exercise. The bicep just isn’t that big or important a muscle in the end.
