The preacher curl bench, where the lord blesses you with gains.
A place where you can let your arms rest while scrolling Instagram
I'd try to refute that but it's the most accurate.
Lock the thread, we got the answer

Where you pray to the gym gods for that extra rep.
The devil's machine. As you have read above its for bicep curls,but it forces you to do them properly, and by god that hurts if you do enough reps. I think it's one of the most useful machines
I once did like 6 sets of high rep preacher curls cold, with zero training. The next day, I woke up unable to fully extend my arms, just extreme stiffness and pain. It took me like a week to fully recover and I've been hooked on preacher curls ever since.
Bicep tendonitis, we’ve all been there
Overtraining your Biceps is definitely the worst kind of sore
Preacher. No one does them BC they are hard.
Do them BC they are hard.
I just watched a video and the guy claimed that people try to do heavy weights for 6-8 reps, they should go for lighter weight and like 15 reps.
Normally I would say you should do this if you're mainly looking for size, but honestly just do this no matter what. Preacher curls are brutal on your joints. Really aren't the place to be adding tons of stress...
Bonus points for drop sets
Preacher curl. It’s a way of isolating the biceps. I really like it except for the fact it hurts my elbows
Back of your arms should be resting on the pad, not elbows.
The gun rack. Cause that’s where they’re forged 💪
You pray here for your biceps to get bigger

Ego lifting Bicep tearing stand
Preacher curl
Altar of the bicep gods
Pull up bar for midgets
The fabled squat rack
I always called them preacher curls. Sit on the seat and lean over the front end and curl the bar.
Not A machine, no moving parts. I would call it the preacher seat
The good old bicep tendon tear station, make sure your ego loads lots of weight and you lower all the way down till you tear your tendon like that one gym video
Bicep detacher
preacher curl setup, sit on the seat, rest your upper arm on the pad and do some bicep curls with the bar. make sure you’re working hard but go for reps over weight, you’ll see some videos of people who go to heavy on this
This machine is where you sit down as a boy, but rise as a man!
Serious answer: it’s a preacher curl machine. Used for biceps
Nice armrest while you're using your phone....that's what I do
Sit on it. Reach over. Grab the bar. Do some curls. Add weight if needed. Profit.
It's where powerlifters nap between sets
Preacher curl. One of my favorites. I know its mostly aesthetic but I enjoy having biggish biceps.
Squat rack
Bicep tear machine. Also some versions don't adjust and if you're over 6 foot you just look rediculous with your frog legs out to the side and your torso bent over the top like a prostate exam. Good times.
5'6" here. Theyre awful for us short guys too. Cant reach the damn bar without mounting the arm pad like you paid it for a 1 hour hotel room stay.
Gotta straddle it for leverage, make it a compound exercise.
Maybe it was never called a preacher bench because of the praying position in the first place. Yikes.
Tendon tear machine
It’s for capturing ghosts.
Suns out boys
Treadmill
Fuck thought it was the static bike, but after second thought, you are right
Could very well be a European variant of the static bike
social media machine. you put your arms on it when surfing the web 🏄♂️🏋️♂️
This is a preacher curl. This is a exercise for the biceps that targets the long head of the bicep. This is a common alternative for the regular bicep curl and is considered better by many as you are unable to cheat the reps due to the fact there is a pad to fix ur elbow on meaning it won’t move.
short* head

Biceps best friend

Vertical sit up mount, your face should touch the flat part when you complete your rep
The altar. For god to bless you with those heavenly gains.
Okay so the actual answer is a preacher curl rack lmao
Well SOME people do curls with it. I do my curls in the squat rack like a real ALPHA. All you BETAs can keep using this so the squat racks are open for my curls.
You’re not alpha for using a curl rack for it’s intended purpose. Real alphas squat on the treadmills with an incline
I squat the treadmill. What does that make me?
Not optimal unless you’re zercher squatting
So that's the reason why i ain't gaining supraphysiological strength i see

Preacher curls bro
Preacher curl / Biceps curl machine. So, a machine on which u do preacher curl with the EZ bar. The EZ bar is the bar you see on the machine. It's called EZ due to its zig zag shape.
The preacher curl is an isolation exercise that focuses on a single muscle group.
I think it’s a squat rack if I’m not mistaken
