Bicep curls?!

Question: Is it better to do bicep curls with individual dumbbells or with a straight bar? Does it matter and if so, what is the difference?

Please provide a link if possible, thanx. I give every answer a 'thumbs-up' rating.

If you must do prettyboy curls. Do them with a straight bar.

At least with a straight bar you can recruit some other muscles into the action. With dumb bells you are isolating one muscle, which is better than nothing, but not the most effective use of energy in a workout.

You should know however, that the bicep is used enough in many compound movements. So much so, that you shouldn't need to isolate it if you have a good lifting program.
