Mikey Boy Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 built a homemade curling device a few weeks back that has brought my numbers on quite well. Its a scaffolding plank with two eye hooks screwed in about 3 feet apart.bungees hooked onto the eye hooks with the bungee hooks bent over to stop them coming off.the top of the bungees hooked onto small karibiners that are hooked onto a barbell.then chains from the barbell going up through a 2 foot section of scaffolding bar.When you curl the scaffolding bar the barbell is a dead weight through the whole movement and the bungees will cut in as they stretch.you can use short bungees for an instant increase in tension or longer ones to delay the increase.make sure to stand/put weight on the plank.I use 3 bungees each side.these will make a heavy contraction at the top of the movement.Let me know what you all think?
