If you really want to learn how to do bicep curls with maximum effectiveness, make sure to follow these 4 exercises which can be applied to any basic curling exercise, such as barbell curls, dumbbell curls, cable curls or even certain machine curls...
#1. Alternate dumbbell curl
Keep your shoulders and elbows stationary.This ensures that your biceps are fully lengthened and maximizes your range of motion.

#2.Barbell curl
When your shoulder and elbow drift forward during your curling movements, it causes the front of your shoulder to take on a portion of the load and decreases the involvement of the biceps. For proper bicep curl technique, keep your shoulders and your elbows stationary at all times

#3.Hummer curl
Focus on keeping the elbow stationary and only moving your forearm.
After the brief pause, inhale and slowly begin the lower the dumbbells back down to the starting position.

#4Cable curl
Don't arch your back excessively: This is the most common mistake seen with bad bicep curl form. Not only does it increase your chances of injury but it also lessens your bicep stimulation as well.

You've now learned exactly how to do bicep curls for the very best muscle building results. Follow these 4 simple but powerful tips and begin building your upper arms with increased effectiveness.
