Jan 9, 2010 8:15 AM: A good exercise. Although, I have heard that this exercise is geared more towards the forearms than the biceps.

Dec 6, 2009 7:16 PM: The way the exercise is shown above would mean that brachioradialis is the main muscle targeted, since the forearm is in mid-pronation. Fully supinated and biceps becomes the main muscle targeted and fully pronated brachialis becomes the main muscle utilised. Perhaps this needs changing?

Nov 18, 2009 7:14 PM: Currently, my favorite bicep exercise. Sometimes my wrists tense up when I do normal curls, so this form helps.
