Reverse curls problem

[phonerenemongeau]

I can’t do a reverse curl with a dumbbells because my muscles get space but I can curl 55 lb curl without problems.

What do you mean by 'get space'?

I'm not quite understanding what that means, but yes reverse curls are much harder.

reverse curls put a tremendous strain on the elbows and wrists.. if it hurts then don't do them. as simple as that

My bicep stops movement at 45 degrees. The pressure increases size of my arms by 10, it will be nice to stay with this size, this is not big arms but I can’t push higher. I wonder if it is a positioning problem.

It's biology (less distance as the bicep hits the forearm muscles). Don't worry about the range of movement.

I have no idea what you mean. Clarify

When I do reverse curls I like to use an EZ bar. The straight barbell is too much pronation for me. But the EZ bar is just right.

I don't like to use the DB's for reverse curls as much. I guess they don't lock the hands into position the way the EZ bar does.

So maybe try the EZ bar for reverse curls instead?

Ok......

Curl at 45 degrees and that makes the same job, some people are more flexible.
