Instructions

Setup

  • Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand with a neutral or supinated grip (palms facing forward).

  • Keep your core engaged and your shoulders back to maintain good posture throughout the exercise.

Movement

  • Begin with your arms fully extended at your sides.

  • Slowly curl the dumbbells upward, focusing only on the bottom half of the movement.

  • Stop once your forearms reach a position parallel to the floor (approximately 90 degrees).

  • Squeeze your biceps at the peak of this partial range for a second.

  • In a controlled manner, slowly lower the weights back to the starting position with your arms fully extended.

  • Avoid using momentum by keeping your elbows glued to your sides during the entire set.
