krellik said:Hmm 110 pounds... With some quick conversion that would be around 40kgs right? Thats a good lift but not unbelievably big. If so its because your almost curling your bodyweight, which definitively is a good lift.
Im not sure why everybody needs to be hating on the curls, if not done extensively, it is atleast free weights...
A fun story that comes to my mind right now. Magnus Samuelson before he became a famous strongman was visiting a new gym he never had been at before. There was this "cocky" guy that was doing 8 reps on 110kgs in the benchpress. The dude was acting like he owned the gym and like an ashole. Magnus asked the guy if he could work in between his sets and after some grunting and acting the cocky guy said ok. Magnus then takes the bar with the weight that the cocky guy had been benchpressing, and starts to curl it for 8 reps. The cocky guy just simply walks out from the gym, never to be seen there again...
Just a funny little story, and the morals of it is, if you wouldnt call Magnus a pussy when doing his 110kgs curls, perhaps you shouldnt call the excersice pussy either...![]()

(edited the story since I remembered it better, i had to add 10kg extra that the mighty Magnus curled, who am I to lessen the mans lifts. By the way 120kg is nothing special for Magnus to curl..)
