Preacher curls work well to hit the lower portion of the biceps muscle fibers... if you do them properly. Watch this trick for building bigger biceps.

I had an argument yesterday with someone, he was bragging how he could do preacher curl with 22kg, when I saw his form I cringed hard, he was stopping about 120 to 130°, I tried to explain him he would benefits from full ROM, and he started being pissed telling me that he knows what he's doing and such arguing going further below he would risk biceps tear. I really tried to be as diplomatic as possible to not hurt his ego. I tried, in vain, explaining him he wouldn't risk anything with an appropriate weight that he could control, and that he would make more gains with less weight and a proper form (optimal SFR) but he shook it off. I guess that's why he has small arms, ego issues.

Different parts of the muscle are more activated than others at different points in the contraction. When the arm is fully extended, the "lower" part of the bicep is used more to pull up the weight than at the end of the contraction. There are millions of fibers in each muscle, they don't all get activated equally.

You guys...how can you possibly believe this bullshit?!? There is no goddamn lower bicep unless you're indicating anatomical positioning, in which case you would say the distal end of the bicep. His claim regarding weaving sarcomeres is complete nonsense. They still have to anchor to surrounding sarcomeres proximal to the location we are all referring to. yes, when a motor neuron fires an action potential it will signal the muscle fibers that it intervates at varying degrees depending on the amount of force required to move an object...BUT IT RUNS THE LENGTH OF THE BICEP!!! Not just one tiny portion at the "lower end". You can say there's a lateral a medial head if that suits you. Jim is a smart smart man...but this is the dumbest shit he has ever uploaded.
