Conseils techniques
Hold the barbell with an underhand grip, with your hands shoulder-width apart. Make sure your grip is firm but not overly tight as it can cause unnecessary strain on your wrists.
The name "drag curl" comes from the motion of dragging the barbell up along your body. Instead of lifting the barbell away from your body like in a traditional curl, keep it close to your body, dragging it up your torso. This will engage your biceps more effectively.
Avoid using momentum to lift the barbell.
