Lots of kettlebell curls over the past several weeks daily, mainly as part of the S&S warmup as per the book, but also additional sets too. Definitely my biceps muscles are a lot bigger now. I do the curls in a squatting position as the book says to. This position seems to isolate the biceps muscles and works great! The 32kg bell I use is of course 71lbs, which is around what I curl with when using a bar (well, maybe a bit more, like 80-90lbs). I've tried out the 40kg bell too, but it's a bit heavy to do many reps with still.
Anyhow, I am really liking this exercise, which is not hard to do at all, yet yields nice results in terms of biceps muscle size. The biceps is a useful muscle, and I have a superstitious suspicion (have had for decades) that big biceps are good for heart health the way big calf muscles are supposed to be too.
