    Best for me

    Close-grip chins & wide-grip barbell curls. Curls first then chins to failure.

    If you still use the highest weight you can handle, and each set last the optimal range of 35-50 seconds. Then you are sure to grow over only having each set last 10-20 seconds.

    I love changing it up, so one week you could do standing BB curls first, then do alternating DB curls. Then the week after that do the DB curls first and BB curls second. This way you always keep your muscles guessing.
    I like doing bb curls then concentration curls then finishing with hammer curls. Burns an tears like a mother!
