Ez Bar Preacher Arms Stretch
Perform the EZ Bar Preacher Arms Stretch to enhance flexibility in your arms and shoulders.
- Begin by sitting at a preacher curl bench with an EZ bar.
- Grip the bar with an underhand grip, arms extended.
- Slowly lower the bar behind your head, feeling the stretch in your arms.
- Hold the stretch for a few seconds before returning to the starting position.
How to perform the Ez Bar Preacher Arms Stretch
- Set up. Set up in a stable, balanced starting position appropriate for the Ez Bar Preacher Arms Stretch using your ez barbell.
- Brace and execute. Brace your core, control the descent, and move through a full pain-free range of motion while emphasizing your biceps.
- Reset. Reverse the movement under control and reset between repetitions, keeping your form crisp on every rep.
Coaching cues
- Move with intent — every rep should feel deliberate, not rushed.
- Drive force through your biceps rather than momentum.
- Keep your breathing steady: exhale on the hard part, inhale on the reset.
Common mistakes
- Using too much weight and losing positional control.
- Cutting the range of motion short and missing the target muscle.
- Letting your spine round or hyperextend instead of staying neutral.
Detailed cues, common mistakes, and demonstration video are available in the Fitly app.
