Instructions

1. Adjust an incline bench to a 45-60 degree angle.

2. Sit back on the incline bench with a dumbbell in each hand, palms facing your body, and arms hanging straight down at your sides.

3. Keep your elbows close to your torso and your back firmly against the bench.

4. Without moving your upper arms, exhale and curl the dumbbells upwards towards your shoulders by contracting your biceps.

5. Squeeze your biceps at the top of the movement, then inhale as you slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position.

6. Keep your wrists straight throughout the movement, as if you're holding a hammer; this is why it's called a "hammer" curl.

7. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions and sets, ensuring you maintain proper form throughout the exercise.

Before starting this or any exercise program, it is important to check with a professional to ensure it is suitable for your individual needs and fitness level.
