Curl with supinated grip most suitable for training biceps brachii
The variant of the curl that is most suitable for training your biceps is the one with an underhand supinated grip. This is evident from an EMG study published in Sports.
Study
On one occasion the subjects curled with an underhand or supinated grip, another time with an overhand or pronated grip, and yet another time with a neutral grip.
Coretella had placed electrodes on the athletes' arms and delts so that he could see the extent to which the muscles below were being stimulated.
Results
The brachioradialis was also best trained with the underhand supinated grip. At least, that's what the researchers write.
We ourselves, the unintelligent compilers of this free web magazine, do not understand exactly how that is possible. We always felt that bodybuilders with a normal skeletal structure best develop the brachioradialis through curls with an overhand grip. But who are we to have a different opinion than people at a university?
After all, the underhand supinated grip was best suited for disabling the shoulder muscles.
