Why use a curl bar?
The waves (or z) on this curl bar allow for a grip that engages the biceps and triceps and relieves strain on the wrists and forearms. You'll build new muscle fibres by varying your exercises compared to a normal flat bar.
What weights can you use with this curl bar?
All 28 mm weight training discs are compatible with this curl bar:

Store your curl bar correctly to keep it for longer!
Your curl bar is made of steel, so moisture is its enemy. Be sure to wipe off the bar with a damp cloth after your workout.
Then store it in a dry place (such as a garage).
To store it easily with your weights, we've created a storage rack (ref: 8788246) and most of our weight training racks have a bar support.
Our coach recommends exercises to do with the curl bar
Muscle-building exercises with the curl bar:
- Biceps: standing curl, 4 sets of 8-12 reps
- Triceps: forehead with bar: 4 sets of 8-12 reps
Start each exercise with the minimum number of reps, always allowing a possibility of doing 2 additional reps at the end of each set. Then, increase by one rep each week until you reach the maximum. You can then increase the load and decrease the number of reps.
