    i like using the ez bar coz they are easier on my wrists. if i use the straight bar my wrists hurt when i go heavy.

    heavy close grip straight bar curls will make the outer head of your bis really show and fast.

    I usally use the staight for my three heavy sets at the beginng of my workout, then do three heavy sets with alternate dumbells and finsh up with a heavy set of ez bar, I feel I can really squeeze at the end.
