๐ The Smith machine drag curl is an effective biceps exercise that emphasizes controlled movement, consistent muscle tension, and minimizing unnecessary momentum.
๐ Unlike traditional bicep curls, drag curls involve pulling the bar upward close to your torso while allowing your elbows to move backward rather than keeping them fixed at your sides.
๐ This movement can be especially valuable in a hypertrophy-focused routine because it gives your biceps a different training stimulus.
