The curls aren't for throwing, they're for therapy. The biceps is the not main muscle for almost anything in SHA, but it is a stabilizer
muscle for almost any thing you do involving arms or chest. I have a certified trainer with lots of rehab experience, and I will be
following her direction. She wants me to throw, eventually, it would be one hell of an advert for her.

Don't count out a late summer or Fall 2013 Games, just yet.
Besides, curls have no place in a throwing regime. Then again, biceps attachments DO have a place, so there you go! However, nothing about your biceps attachment is keeping you from squatting. Or doing sit-ups... or box jumps, or running/hopping stadium steps, or any number of great things, all of which will help you throw farther. TRUTH.
