Of course, once you win a Mr Olympia title you can claim the rack for yourself and no one will object.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs you see, I\u2019m going heavy,\u201d noted Curry, placing his front leg out. \u201cThis provides more stability when using the heavier load. Curry keeps his lead leg straight and reaches down with the dumbbell before lifting it back up, all without bending the knee. This keeps weight focused more on his upper body, taxing his lats and rhomboids.<\/p>\n<p>Notice that the bodybuilder is lifting more to the front than to his side to reduce the twist on his waist. \u201cAs you see, I\u2019m really reaching into the stretch. Once I get comfortable, as the reps go, I stretch more and more.\u201d Between his sets of 10-12 reps, Curry joked that he places the dumbbell on the floor because it is \u201cfreakin\u2019 heavy.\u201d He then switches the lead leg and repeats the process.\u00a0\u00a0\u201cYou will see that my torso is not getting a lot of torque,\u201d he explained. \u201cI actually am moving forwards and backwards in a motion, instead of a side or waist motion, so this keeps the obliques and the lower back out of it as much as possible. If you\u2019ve never tried this stance, I recommend it for rowing heavy dumbbells.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are just under 3 weeks out from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/arnoldsports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@arnoldsports<\/a> 2025 and I\u2019m still digging for more,\u201d said the big man in his original IG post.
