This is it. The ultimate exercise for getting unwanted advice from other people at the gym. I will look to incorporate these asap, if I'm lucky I'll make it onto some kind of tiktok compilation. Thanks Eugene.

Once you become jacked enough it really doesn't matter what the fuck you're doing at the gym cuz people realise it must be working. + If you care about getting respect from other gymbros that actually know what they're doing, they'll most likely figure out what's going on if they use their brain a lil bit in between sets.
lmao
@@coacheugeneteo teo, are you related to Eugene Sandow? You have the same first name
You might end up in a gym fuckery compilation video
This is probably the best exercise while staring down and smiling at some stranger through the mirrors. Definitely gonna have to give it a try
I thought that was the hip thrust.

Zottman Curls have solved my Tennis Elbow pain completely. Their my priority when I'm training the Brachialis, Biceps and Brachioradialis.
Awesome!!
My elbow clicks when do overhead tricep stuff and elbow hurts when hold mits for even beinnger boxing people. I want to be able to move with and take hits to mits of good fighters but elbow would be ruined. Ill give this a go and see if sorts out elbow. Odd its my left elbow when I'm right handed, if not an injury in the past hope that means there's an undeveloped muscle of left side that leaves elbow unprotected. Hopefully this zotman exercise the missing link
Did a few sets over 2 days and stopped clicking but back pretty quick. Good start though.
@@nikitaw1982 commenting for update! Definitely a problem area of mine too
Sounds like I need to start doing them, how long roughly did it take to fix your tennis elbow also did you avoid heavy weights while doing it?
I think the best part about this video is how he just tells you the knowledge he knows, admits when he isn't completely sure on things, but is honest about how he works through it and not trying to feed any crap to us. Great content man keep it up. I'm gonna start working on these today.
Thank you! đ
I can't believe this video got 12k likes, that is stupid to do 2 different biceps exercises in one they are supposed to be done separate one at the time because on a regular curl you are supposed to to full range of motion on both the positive and the negative movement of the repetitions so by disengaging the biceps in the way down you are taking away the best part of the movement for full bicep stimulation, you are doing it half way so no don't do stupid exercises like that do regular dumbell or dumbell curls then do the hammer curls alone and at the end of the bicep workout do reverse grip curls with either a straight bar or EZ bar for forearms, don't mix it that doesn't make any sense don't listen to that guy if you do that you are only doing the positive movement on the bicep missing the negative and on the way down by twisting the dumbell and disengaging the bicep you are missing the positive movement in the reverse grip curl and miss the negative movement on the regular curl, use common sense..đ€·ââïžđ€·ââïž
The weird technique that begins at 3:30 is called Dumbell Circular Swing Curl. It is popular among serious Kodokan Judo and Kyokushin Kaikan Karate practioners in Japan. It is first introduced in the book Judo Training Methods a Source Book written by Ishikawa Takahiko çłć·éćœ„ and Donn F Draeger, published in 1962. Their version uses a bigger circular motion with almost fully extended arms.
i literally started doin zottman curls this week and i thought "man those feel amazing, why don't enough people talk abt them?" only to find this vid :D, ur advice and tips are always golden uncle Eugene!
Thank you! đ
It was 1 year ago since I started doing this, and this exercise has helped me ridiculously. I do armwrestling as a hobby and definetly my wrist and hand motion improved so much because of this technique. This exercise is the equivalent of Lu Xiaojun Lateral Raises but for elbows and wrists.
Same, I started doing this on my own just thinking how to engage pronation and wrist movements
Do you do it with the dance or just up, turn, down?
@@bryanfranco9597 with dance, without it I feel like something is missing now, I can't do it the other way.
The Lu Raise comparison is very interesting and somehow made sense to me. Full ROM and movement quality.
I was reading that these help with rehabbing tennis elbow if caught early and fixing the underlying causes. Going to add them to the routine and see for myself.
when i do the âswimming zottman curlsâ in the gym tomorrow and i start get strange looks, iâll play them the Gironda part of this video
đđđ
We'll probably see you in a "gym recopilation fails" đ
I naturally have thin forearms and I'm wary of stressing my wrist joints. I started doing these exercises today and oh boy am I feeling it ... Only used 6kg dumbbells!
Man. You're seriously one of the best gym content creators ever. I learned really alot from you.
Thank you! đ
This is a great warm up exercise for someone tackling an arm day. Very well explained as well
I have been doing curls all my life,this is new to me,this old dog just learned a new trick.I started weight lifting when I was seventeen,I am now seventy four.Thanks for sharing
Omg very nice.
Kid
Watching this video while wearing a TOOL shirt to then see you also wearing a TOOL shirt is next level and why I keep watching your channel. This has happened on more than one occasion.
Nice T-Shirt.
And nice advice, I'll keep it in mind in my next biceps workout.
Woohoo!! A John Meadows reference. Rest In Peace big fella.
It really works. I always looking a way to improve my forearm size. I exercise a lot daily but I feel the forearm are left out.
Thank you so much.
I feel it on the first couple sets of 15
I'm a girl, but want thicker forearms too! I'm gonna try this exercise, since my elbows don't really react well when I'm adding additional arm exercises, and it's like 2 in 1
The burn you get while doing these is crazy.
You're a good teacher with good information. Thank you.
Never would have thought of that on my own, totally makes sense. Will definitely try on arm day, thx!
Looking forward to try this next pull workout!
Brilliant video gonna start today đȘ
Awesome video canât wait to try it on my next workout just when I thought this old dog couldnât learn new tricks thank you for your time and teaching us something new on this video đȘđ»đ
Great video and straight to the point on the attack đđŒđȘđŒ
Most definitely going to try this once I leave work
Very informative, thank you!
This is the best and only explanatory video of zotman curls I've seen.
Great explanation! Been doing a variation of these for a while now and they work!
Thanks Eugene, I will give it a try.
Keep up with this kindness and calm in your explenations, we need it.
Very interesting. I can't wait to try this on arms day! I may try it at home over the weekend instead of waiting to get back to the gym on Monday.
Just when you think this man has no more gems he's on my feed doing strange moves I immediately will be doing tomorrow upon walking into the gym
this is look so amazing forearm practice! Cant hardly wait 2 try it this evening. Thanks, mate! đđ€©đ
Your explanation is top notch.
Love the content Eugene, have done Zottmans before, but never like that, will give them a go
Brilliant, as usual! I love your vids!! Thanks so much!
Very cool! I will try this in the upcoming week.
Great video brother. Thank you.
Looks effective, surely gonna incorporate it in my workout routine. Thanks !
Gonna try these out. Looks a little easier on the wrist. I find that the regular zottman curls really hurt my wrist almost as if I cant completely pronate my wrist into a good position to resist the weight.
Yes!
I like Eugene Teo as a creator. No drama, just good advice from a charismatic, respectful guy.
Thanks Eugene, gotta give this a try!
Finally I get to see the motion it makes sense in easier .....im glad...late but glad....keep up the good work đââïž
Great Coverage
Thanks for sharing đđđ,
God bless you and your family
BEST CHANNEL EVER đȘđȘHELOOO FROM GREECE! KEEP POSTING!!
Thanks for the great content and for keeping John's name going.
I think the wax-on version of it actually plays into a lot of technique similar to other exercises you've discussed on this channel - the planes of motion doing it that way are disadvantageous for things like compensatory upper back arching, that could come into play (and potentially need active isolation to avoid) with a strict front-facing curl.
That makes a bit of sense, it is easy to cheat subconsciously during regular curls.
Hi Eugene. Thanks for the quality and presentation of these videos - always very technical but also well explained and easy to understand.Keep up the great work.
Thank you! đ
Great style and presentation. Loved it.
Excellent stuff.
Thank you very much Sir!
My forearms been lacking for years hoping this exercise will help
Make sure to train to or close to failure of the target muscle, and it will work.
Add direct forearm curls too. I do 4 sets of cable forearm curls twice a week and seeing noticeable growth for the first time in my life
@@benjamindavis2475 yeah been doing those for years my forearms have progressed doing those
After a few days watching I subscribed to this channel, I have been training in the gym for about 3 years and Teo definitely gives me good vibes, hints, tips and valuable content. But today, when I saw your Tool t-shirt, you won me over as the all-time favorite : ) Keep it up. With best regards
Awesome vid! Thank you! Subbed!
thats a fine explanation friend...keep broadcasting such
I got here through a travel of watching a Cristina Russo video about metal screaming, eventually Tool, and now I'm here. You get me, keep going.
Great tips that was awesome thanks for the tips I will incorporate them into my workout routine
Great shirt dude!
Always great info and love the shirt! đ
Thank you for your videos. I'm working the forearms so I can keep the power in my golf swing.
Cool, never seen this before, will give it a shot
Good explanationđ
Something new to add to my exercises
Pretty cool video. Definitely going to be using this âzottman curlâ technique
I need to do that , thanks a lot.
I want to thank you for this video I believe this motion solved an elbow weakness I have from a motorcycle accident a decade ago.
been waiting for this video thank u mr teo
One of favourites! Along with the one you showed with John!! Hits the forearm lime crazy
Yes!

Good channel. Thanks for the advice. Can't beat the price!
Excellent video as usual Eugene and with reference to the Great John Meadows.
Great exercise definitely works
Thank you.
We need your take on using the hand squeezers and it's effectiveness
These are my go to. I teach my clients as well
Iv been training 4 about 23yrs, exercises get a bit boring after awhile but this is deffs sumthing Iâm excited 2 add 2 my arms day routine:D
Nice technique, I'm going to try this out
oh yes. adding these to my arm day
Great vid
Awesome going to try this
Enjoy!
What a funky lookin' exercise
Great advice, very informative, like your simple approach, cheers
Glad it was helpful!
Great vid, love the shirt.
Thank you
Good work đ lets call it the Eugene curl
Tool definitely my top 5 band to listen too
Thanks Eugene! Hope you are doing well.
Thank you so much for sharing this technique! I was doing the Technique you showed at 2:50 for a very long time now and didnt improve much after some gains from the start. I see how much better this (to me) new technique here is because as you said the biceps helps loading the two brachii-friends!
People still don't get it, min 2:50.
It's for the forearms. Not biceps. It works good.
Reverse grip curl is something I finish with as my biceps are beasted so itâs really working forearm I find. Each to their own of course
Dude awesome freaking shirt!
interesting exercise!!
I canât wait to try this next mesocycle.
It's awesome!
Brilliant video mate respect YNWA brother
Nice video and explanation but i will keep doing the original excersises, curl's, hammer curls and reverse, those helped me a lot.
God Bless You Brother! đđđđđđđđđđđđđđ
loving the t-shirt, bro
thank you from canada
Sweet. Very interesting and it appears to use a lot of centrifugal force along with natural body motion for stimulation. It really seems effective in certain aspects. I will enjoy giving it a go
Tnx for advice i will start using this.
By the way nice T-shirt!!!
Great shirt!!!
