Hard L on this one
🙄
Hammer Curls is one of the most safest compound movement you can do. It’s not the best bicep exercise but it still gives you enough while working your forearms. I say this because I saw the results.
L take by Mike Isratael
Don’t take advice from this guy he’s so wrong😂😂
Hammer curls and their variations are essential to building back pressure in armwrestling (basically your ability to drive your hand back towards yourself).
Anti Spiral
Menno did an article with studies that showed no difference in grip position and bicep growth 🤨
Maybe if you did Hammer Curls you would have a pro card, oh and a better tan of course.
Bro what😂
The late John Meadows would disagree and he had arms and physique that Mike would ever dream of. Waste of time is doing everything super slow and with baby weights.
Sure Mike, while not on the level of standard curls, Hammers are an excellent alternative if avoiding elbow pain tears and injuries, and also give an awesome pump/finish to an arm session.
I do hammer curls for my forearms and also as a warm up for my biceps which still have some tendonitis.
Keep your knowledge inside in your pocket.bcoz exactly you don't know how to do and don't miss guide us.
I would agree. An overrated thing I notice a lot of bodybuilders do is over emphasize isolations when they should be doing more compounds
Uh I believe you're wrong their bub. Hammer curls work n work well. But we all have our own work out program and studying different peoples ideas is all part of it. Do you n I'll do me.
Hammer curl is good for me cuz i do arm wrestling
Heavy strict hammer curls significantly increased the size and strength of my arms.They are awesome for mass and strength.Also for armwrestling
I do hammer curls my arms r getting bigger & stronger
Alright. LIVING IS A WASTE OF TIME!! Everything in internet can say everything is bad leaving you dead.
The brachiallis doesn’t work on supination or pronation. That’s the biceps. So that wouldn’t matter idk why you brought it up?
What’s getting missed here, is the prioritization of bicep work. Yes, hammer curls don’t help the peak directly. It’s my understanding the bicep will get pushed up(similar to pushing your biceps up with your thumb). Part of body building is understanding visual payoffs.
Hammer curls are good for those without pull up bars or overweight so pull ups are less feasible
Then why do your arms look like shit
I don’t know what to believe anymore😭
Wait… So why are they on the hypertrophy app?
No hate to mike but a lot of stuff he calls “a waste of time” and says “x exercise targets it anyway” doesn’t work for us natties.
You gotta hit it directly as a natural or it doesn’t grow.
I get a great pump from hammer curls.
This the first time I highly disagree with him.
This video is one that is junk. I focus on taking my back to failure when I hit back, not my arms. Hammer curls are in no way a waste of time, and these muscles definitely benefit from being hit..
I like hammer curls as a beginner because they're more comfortable to me.
