Instructions
1. Select an appropriate weight for the barbell, one that provides enough resistance for the wrist reverse curls but is also manageable to complete full sets with proper form.
2. Stand up straight with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent.
3. Hold the barbell in front of you at thigh level, using an overhand grip (palms facing down) with your hands positioned about shoulder-width apart.
4. Keep your elbows close to your body and your wrists straight.
5. Without moving your arms, curl your wrists upwards, lifting the weight as high as possible.
6. Squeeze your forearm muscles at the top of the movement for a moment.
7. Slowly lower the barbell back down to the starting position.
8. Keep your movements controlled throughout the exercise to prevent momentum from taking over.
9. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions and sets.
Remember, it's essential to use a weight that allows you to maintain control of the barbell throughout the entire range of motion without compromising your form. It’s also important to warm up before performing this exercise to prevent injury.
