How to perform

  1. 1

    Hold the dumbbell towards the side farther from you so that you have more weight on the side closest to you. (This can be done for a good effect on all bicep dumbbell exercises). Now do a normal incline dumbbell curl, but keep your wrists as far back as possible so as to neutralize any stress that is placed on them.

  2. 2

    Sit on an incline bench that is angled at 45-degrees while holding a dumbbell on each hand.

  3. 3

    Let your arms hang down on your sides, with the elbows in, and turn the palms of your hands forward with the thumbs pointing away from the body. Tip: You will keep this hand position throughout the movement as there should not be any twisting of the hands as they come up. This will be your starting position.

  4. 4

    Curl up the two dumbbells at the same time until your biceps are fully contracted and exhale. Tip: Do not swing the arms or use momentum. Keep a controlled motion at all times. Hold the contracted position for a second at the top.

  5. 5

    As you inhale, slowly go back to the starting position.

  6. 6

    Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

Important tips

  • Pin your elbows to your sides and keep them there.

  • Curl without swinging your torso.

  • Squeeze at the top and resist the weight on the way down.
