How to do it

Bayesian cable curl. Low pulley behind body. Bicep in lengthened position — peak stretch tension. Superior hypertrophy evidence.

Muscles worked

Mainly biceps. Train it inside a balanced routine to progress safely.

Recommended sets and reps

As an isolation exercise, it works best in 3–4 sets of 10–15 reps with 0–2 RIR. Use it at the end of the session to add volume without systemic fatigue.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Swinging the body and letting the elbows drift forward, turning the curl into a shoulder movement.
• Using too much weight at the cost of technique and full range of motion.
• Doing reps too fast, without controlling the eccentric (lowering) phase.

Alternative exercises

• Barbell curl
• Alternating dumbbell curl
• Hammer curl
• Preacher curl
• Low cable curl
