We have 2 easy curl bars, no straight bar. Bought them ages ago when I was told the angled sections are easier on the wrists.
Anatomically, I think my lower arms are rotated somewhat inward. It's very hard-impossible for me to hold dumbbells straight, level. I can't rotate my thumb side out far enough to be level. they are tipped so the inner side of the dumbbell is lower than the outer. I can't keep them straight no matter what, so I was thinking a straight bar would not let me to hold it crooked.
Should I replace the easy curl bars with a straight bar? I'm wondering about how the angle will affect wrists,biceps,triceps etc.
I'm doing Power hour 3x a week & am using the easy curl bar for all barbell moves, about 15 lbs. It seems comfortable but I've never used a straight bar. What do you think?
