I found that using the arm blaster for a month if your form isn’t so good teaches you to curl better when you stop using it.

The point I was trying to make in my previous post, which I may not have gotten across, is that while I like the idea behind the Arm Blaster, I had one break on me mid-set. Since then, I haven’t been such a fan of them. I guess you could say I’ve become gun-shy. (pun intended) 
If you want to double check your elbows, back up against a wall.

How many more posts will there be before newbies begin to understand that some 250lbs guy with 20" arms cheating a little while curling 85lbs dumbbells is NOT the same as some scrawny kid cheating and ruining his form just to curl a 35lbs dumbbell?[/quote]
I think the rule of thumb is, once the sun ceases to rise, the repetitive questions will stop.
I think it does always need to come back to the individual, why they’re training, and whether or not they truly know what they’re doing.
Beginner with under a year of training - Follow textbook form.
Professional Bodybuilder - Just get the job done.
It’s kind of a case of “those that know the rules are the ones who get to break (or bend) them.”
