Overview

The barbell forehead curl is a classic movement from the Golden Age of bodybuilding and is often associated with Dave 'The Blond Bomber' Draper. The barbell is brought up to your forehead instead of to your chest, emphasizing the squeeze and peak contraction. It is usually performed for moderate to high reps, such as 8-12 reps per set.
