Weighted chin ups, curls, hammer curls.
heavy weighted chins. i've never seen any benefit from curls, all i do for biceps is weighted chins and i get comments on them all the time
weighted chins are under rated as fuck, everyone fucks around with 3xf and other retarded rep ranges with their body weight when in fact we all know the best way to get big is to lift heavy weights
What worked for me, after falling for the 'compounds will make your biceps bigger' and the weighted chin up memes are high volume curls, 21s and shit

reverse grip heavy deadlifts, superset with curls

This is how you find residence in Snap City.

That's probably because you have shit form or tiny delts and rotate your shoulder too much.

Do true curls, starting as a hammer curl and rotating into a bar curl, switch arms every 20 reps until failure. Personally, I mix in a little reverse forearm curls and those seem to beat them the fuck up too.

>switch arms every 20 reps until failure
why not just do 8 reps with heavier weight on each arm simultaneously?
I find 21s to be really good, also I have a pull up bar in my doorway and I do a couple sets of chin ups everyday (I go to like 2 before failure).
curls have helped me more than pullups, alternating db concentration curl pyramid sets (i.e. arm pauses while other lifts) did wonders for me

Because that's cheating. If you want to hit your delts and biceps hard do it one hand at a time with high reps and a tough weight.

here what I do
>curl half way from bottom 8 reps
>curl from half way to full ROM 8 reps
>finish it with full ROM curl AMRAP
burn my bicep everytime
