    it was honestly pretty good form, no bullsh*t! the reason i did was to see if i could for myself and myself only to see where im at, it's a goal for myself to curl my body weight so cheating on this would just be cheating myself right....

    there's no problem with believing you or not believing you... my mind is made up. this is a forum, so don't start a thread and then tell people not to post. we all have different beliefs and opinions. if we all thought exactly the same, there would be no reason for this site. i am just of the belief that you can't curl 165lbs with proper form and you are more than welcome to prove me wrong.

    haha true ...Well did curl 210 today for 8, but I did use my back and cheated. I wasn't going for strict form more just to shock the muscle a little by doing a weight that it normally wouldn't be able to do by itself.

    lean up against a wall with your elbows against it, then tell me you curled it. i do mostly concentration things for biceps. the most ive done on preacher is 60lbs on each side of bar for one rep.

    there's no way you can curl more than your bodyweight with proper form.
