Step-by-step
- Stand tall and grip the bar or dumbbells with an overhand grip (palms facing your body) at shoulder width.
- Pin your elbows to your sides and keep your shoulders back.
- Keeping your wrists straight, curl the weight up by bending at the elbows.
- At the top, squeeze your forearms and biceps.
- Lower back to the starting position slowly and under control.
Coaching tip
Keep your wrists locked in a pronated (palms-down) position and initiate the movement with the brachioradialis.
