other exercises using EZ curl bar?

You are doing the right thing trying to find other uses for that bar. For curls it is actually less effective than a plain old straight bar. Don't feel bad though...most of us have owned one at one time or another. :eek:
 
Ez bars have their uses...if you can't perform a lift with the 45, you can use the ez. If you don't have room, you can use the ez...the list goes on.

Valid points. I stand partially corrected. :)
 
Seems like you build strength really fast with the plain old straight bar. Hurts my forearms though seems like its putting my arms into an uncomfortable posistion compared to the ez bar. I just got off of the 45lb bar reppin 4sets of 6 at 85 and hopped on the ez bar and do 3 sets of 10 at 95. Feels so much better but i guess thats why its no pain no gain?
