Incline Dumbbell Curls to Prevent Injury

2 years ago

Many pro bodybuilders talk about stopping just shy of full extension to “keep the tension” on your biceps.

I argue that not only are you short-changing yourself, but you’re also setting yourself up for long-term injury.

The biceps tendon is a major component in pec strains and tears. By not training it through the full range of motion, you’re not only NOT getting as much hypertrophy benefit (working through full-ROM is almost always superior) but you’re also not strengthening your tendons through their entire range of motion.

This is an incline dumbbell curl and I recommend people do this 1-2x per week to not only make gains, but to also help prevent injuries. I like to do 3-4 sets in the 8-12 rep range.
