Is cheating allowed in arm exercises?

There are two types of moves - compound moves and isolation moves. Biceps curls, either barbell or arm blasters are isolation moves.

Exercises like clean and press or clean and jerk are compound in which the cheating part is inbuilt in the exercise itself. Those moves require all major muscle groups and momentum. In such moves you can cheat, although experts call the cheating move as normal part of exercise.

In isolation exercises like biceps curls, more so in arm blasters  as the equipment is used to prevent cheating, do not use excessive bending to generate momentum.

The shoulder muscles should not be used and body should be held straight with eyes looking forward.

Strict form in cheat curls will help you build more biceps muscles without draining shoulders or causing back muscle fatigue.
