Unlock Your Hidden Arm Size By Working Your Brachialis Muscles...
The brachialis muscles lie underneath the lower aspect of the biceps. When developed they work to push the biceps muscle up from underneath, increasing biceps peak and increasing overall arm size.
Building the brachialis will literally unlock "hidden" arm size as most people rarely, if ever, work their brachialis muscles.
To do this one, you'll need an EZ curl bar and a few plates.
It's super simple...
All you need to do is load a plate onto ONE end of the EZ curl bar.
Then grip the bar just under the plate loaded end and curl it.
I like to take a staggered stance for these with the leg opposite to your working arm set forward (curl with left, right leg forward). This helps to keep the loading within your center of balance.
I like to come all the way up as high as I can when doing hammer curls. Note the wrist angle at the top of the movement. This angle helps keep tension on the brachialis at the top.
Do all your reps on one side, then set the bar on end and switch hands.
Now, in answer to your question about can hold it from the other end with the weight on the bottom, yes. You can. FYI, because the weight will be hanging down, you'll only get about half the range of motion (unless you're standing on a bench or box). It does work well still, though.

Are you 40...50...60 or even 70+ years old and want to build muscle and strength like you did 20 years ago?
If you feel like you're fighting a losing battle, you're ready to discover the REAL secret to REVERSING muscle loss due to aging...
*** You need to train the body systems that SUPPORT your muscle mass, not just the muscle itself. ***
These underlying support systems diminish as you age, which is why you lose muscle as you get older no matter how hard you train... but with strategic training, these systems can be regenerated.
