bicep exercise that elimates forearms

[MUSCLETECH]

Is there any exercises that hit biceps without the forearm? mine always give out before the bicep because they are stronger and over power.

No, a faster bar speed could help with less activation though, no science to that just experience.

I know Dorian had a nautilus machine in his gym that hit it perfectly

I would think if you can find some machines or apparatus that will eliminate the need to grip the bar you should be good, like the nautilus machine you mentioned or a hammer strength plate loaded curl where you can use an open palm.

Have you tried using straps around the bar to eliminate the need to grip the bar really tight?

Oh come on, who wouldn't want big-ass forearms?

But if you insist...try these...courtesy of JJJJJeff Daniels...

Isolator comes with wrist straps that eliminate gripping.

Yeah i have used a preacher machine with open palm that works and wide grip barbell curls

Maybe try ankle cuffs on your wrists and do some cable curls? If wide grip BB curls work, then what about attaching a lat pulldown bar to a low cable? Or even using ab straps attached to a low pulley and slide your arms into them up to you wrists so you are curling up from your forearms?

I'm just brainstorming some options for ya...
