I HATE Bicep Curls

I HATE bicep curls! There I said it. I hate bicep curls and I don't care who knows and what they say or believe. The biceps serves minimal if any purpose in sports performance and doing bicep curls is not even the best way to train the biceps for sports performance. There is NO athletic movement that is ever performed where curling a heavy weight from your pelvis to your chest will help to determine victory. NONE! NADA! ZILCH! ZIP! Try to think of one and you will not come up with ONE. NOT ONE! So why do so many so called "sports performance coaches' and personal trainers include bicep curls so often in their workouts with their "athletes". How may videos do I have to watch where a fitness professional will say "we are increasing athleticism" or "creating athletes" and then watch them do biceps curls? Whether you do them with a barbell, dumbell, Twist Smart Toner, TRX or any other product it simply comes down to that you are not training to be athletic and your misguided knowledge is giving our industry a bad name. Doing bicep curls are simply for vanity and to have big arms. People, athletes included, want to look good and doing bicep curls is believed to help with that endeavor. Even then though there are better ways to go about getting big biceps. Pullups and Chinups are great exercises and teach body control along with actually working the biceps in a sport manner while also drastically improving our grip strength. As see it there are 2 solutions that will work. First is train more effectively and do exercises that can actually improve your athleticism and sports performance. Second option is for fitness people to stop calling themselves "sports performance coaches" and calling their clients "athletes" since they are neither improving sports performance or training like an athlete. I know neither of these is realistic but in a perfect world it would happen and there would also be regualtion in the fitness industry. Until then I will speak my mind about the fitness industry. That is all I have for today. Whether you agree or disagree is your right but that doesn't mean you ARE right.
