Discover the secret to wider biceps with a game-changing Zottman curl variation that focuses on the brachialis (Not just a fancy term—it’s the muscle that adds serious width to your arms). We've got a video linked for you, so you can easily follow along and nail those curls like a pro! 🎥

Plus, expert tips to take your arm workout to the next level. Let’s get those sleeves stretched! 💪

It’s All About Position!

When most people think of biceps, they focus on traditional curls—usually with a supinated (palms-up) grip. But to really build the brachialis, you need to switch things up to a neutral hand position. This means your palms should be facing each other as you curl.

Now, hammer curls are the usual go-to for this. But here’s the kicker: hammer curls can be tough to maintain, especially when you start feeling that muscle fatigue creep in. So, what’s the solution?

Enter the Zottman Curl Variation 🏋️

This variation is going to hit your brachialis like never before. And it’s really simple.

1. Start with a supinated grip (palms-up) as you curl the weight upwards.

2. At the top of the curl, rotate your wrists to a neutral (palms facing each other) position.

3. Now, the magic happens: Lower the weights slowly with this neutral grip—take your time! The slower, the better for maximum brachialis overload.

Why This Works (Hint: It’s Genius)

The combo of the supinated curl-up and the neutral lower-down hits your biceps from all angles. On the way up, you’re targeting the classic bicep peak, but on the way down? That’s where the brachialis kicks in, giving you the extra width that’ll make you want to wear sleeveless shirts every day.

Final Tips for Maximum Arm Gains 🎯

• Go slow: Don’t rush through the lowering phase—that’s where the magic happens.

• Keep it light: This isn’t a “lift as heavy as possible” move. It’s about control and precision.

• Be consistent: Add this into your routine for a few weeks, and you’ll notice your arms looking wider and more defined. Sleeve game = STRONG.
