Lee Priest shares the right way to do bicep curls

Lee Priest recently took to his official Instagram account, @leepriestofficial72, and shared a video where he was seen talking about the correct technique of pulling off a bicep curl. Explaining that bending the upper body forward can hamper the workout, he recommended his followers to cheat by leaning back, thereby putting stress on the bicep muscle. 

He said, “Don’t cheat, just bring it up and squeeze. Doing this doesn’t squeeze your bicep anymore, just works your delts and also none of this sh*t where you’re doing, throwing it.” Adding that cheating the right way is the key, he mentioned, “Just use proper form. And if you’re going to cheat, just cheat a little bit to add stress to it, not take away.”
