Скачать или смотреть Lifting Better? The Preacher Pad

Today I discuss I tried and true bicep builder called the Preacher Curl (also known as the Scott Curl and the Gironda Curl) with a relatively new product by AbMat and Garage Gym called a Preacher Pad. Traditionally the preacher curl involves stabilizing the upper arm with a bench. The Preach Pad conveniently enables this to be done with a lightweight foam pad that can be done just about anywhere. Of course there are some drawbacks however that make this promising alternative far from perfect, just as placing the torso in a suboptimal position and little-no adjustability. On balance, this product gets a thumbs down from ExerciseLab, but I do discuss ways it could be improved upon and be a solid product.

Fortunately, I have also found a nice way to accomplish this that I have already covered in an earlier video here at ExerciseLab using bands to secure a foam roller to simulate this movement. This is also a fantastic exercise in its own right and has been a staple of my training routine. Just because you can't get a Preacher Pad doesn't mean you can't get results. So if your bicep development and/or strength is lagging, lag no longer.
