Barbell Standing Close Grip Curl
The Barbell Standing Close Grip Curl is a biceps curl performed with the hands closer together than a standard barbell curl. The narrow grip changes the arm angle and keeps the elbows tucked near the torso.
The biceps remain the main target, while the brachialis and forearms assist the curl. Standing also requires the core to stay braced so the body does not swing the bar upward.
This exercise is useful for focused arm training and adding variety to standard curls. It can help lifters feel a strong squeeze through the front of the upper arms.
Use a load you can control without leaning back. The bar should move because the elbows flex, not because the hips or shoulders swing.

What does the close grip change?
It changes the arm angle and can make the curl feel more focused while still targeting the biceps.

Use a weight you can curl without swinging. Strict control matters more than load.

The brachialis, brachioradialis, and forearm flexors assist the movement.
