Yea I know it looks silly but its one of the few exercises I was able to find for biceps which requires absolutely no equipment. It looks like it works your bicep just like it would in a bicep curl, especially if you pull your leg to the starting position for more resistance and do low reps (like he mentioned). I know I shud get weights and do chin ups etc but if I wanna do something which requires absolutely no equipment, this isn't bad right? I do feel quite a burn after doing it just like you do after bicep curls.

I think it is the most stupid exercise I've ever seen. Why would you pull your leg in that completely unnatural direction? The reason barbells, weight plates, dumbbells, exercise machines, etc. where invented was to create an efficient way of stimulating muscles. Pulling your ankle to your ear isn't one of those ways. It looks dangerous and I doubt you would get any serious muscle growth from it.

interesting exercise, but if you have access to dumbbells, barbells and chin up bar, then you are good to go. I wouldn't waste my time on exercise like that, but if you don't have access to weight lifting equipment, that's a pretty good option.

That's because the "exercise" is ridiculous and nobody worth their salt would put their name on it. It seems like you really don't care what peoples opinion is unless they say it's a good idea. If you are set on doing it regardless of the advice, do it. Why ask in the first place, and why keep bumping this topic?
Tell you what. Why don't you take a before pic now and post it. Come back after 6 months of doing this exercise and post an after photo.Most recent 1RM / 5RM

Yea I do want positive feedback on it but even if you say it's bad it's still better than doing nothing right??? Or do you think there is a high risk of injury.. I know I'm a bit biased but this is the only biceps equipment free exercise I found and really wanted to convince myself that it's worth my time...
