Both should be fine if you keep your wrists supined(Mr Rippetoe goes into it in the vid below).

i like to curl seated inclined the seat to about 50-60 degrees, let your arms hang and curl. completely isolates them.

barbell you have to miz up grip, hands closer to each other then farther. and curl the bar as close to your body as possible.

Straighten your elbows with both after each rep

They say supernating is the key to getting bigger biceps and you can't do that with a barbell.

pronating your wrists slightly isnt going to deactivate your biceps and make doing curls totally useless

mark rippetoe is the biggest meme out there
>>
>>36708522

cable curls

hammer curls

preacher curls

all I do desu, besides you should be working them via your back exercises anyway
>>
EZ bar with an inverted grip for forearm strength
>>
pullups/hammercurls

seriously, drop those puny db curls and stuff. Not even memeing, they are pointless but if you really want to do them I'd say db curls
>>
>>36708783
You're joking right?
>>
>>36710569
Chins are better for arms though
>>
>>36710569
>they are pointless
not if you wanna add mass fast using high reps
>>
>>36708799
Damn, I'm jealous as fuck.
>>
>>36710569
