Biceps 7x7x7

The bicep curl at the bar in 7x7x7 is a great exercise for advanced people. You can also do it if you are beginner or intermediate but with lighter weights and adapted to your level.

Here it is an insulation exercise that allows to vary the working angles and vary the short and long portions of the biceps.

We will have three angles to work consecutively and without stopping.

Here are the basic guidelines for performing biceps in series

• 1. Load an EZ bar for the biceps and sit for the exercise. Standing, feet at pelvis width, knees bent, and bar held supine with arms outstretched and close to the body. For each working angle, make 7 repetitions.
• 2. First working angle : contract your biceps and raise the bar to the height of the elbow. Then return to the starting position.
• 3. Second working angle : on the same horizontal axis as your elbow, up to shoulder height.
• 4. Third angle of work : in full amplitude, from the bottom of the position your arms are almost stretched. Climb the bar up to shoulder height.
