Dumbbell Preacher Hammer Curl Instructions
- Two dumbbells of appropriate weight
Positioning:
1. Set Up the Bench: Adjust the preacher curl bench so that when seated, your upper arms rest comfortably on the sloped pad.
2. Select Your Dumbbells: Choose a weight that you can lift with good form for multiple repetitions without straining.
3. Sit on the Bench: Position yourself on the bench, ensuring your feet are flat on the ground and your back is straight.
4. Grip the Dumbbells: Hold a dumbbell in each hand with a neutral grip (palms facing each other). Your arms should be extended, and the dumbbells should hang down in front of you.
Movement:
1. Curl Up: Slowly curl the dumbbells towards your shoulders by bending your elbows. Keep your upper arms pressed against the pad for support.
2. Squeeze at the Top: When the dumbbells are near shoulder level, pause for a moment and squeeze your biceps.
3. Lower the Dumbbells: Slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position, fully extending your arms but maintaining control throughout the movement.
4. Repeat: Perform the desired number of repetitions (typically 8-12), ensuring your movements are steady and controlled.
Tips:
- Avoid swinging your body or using momentum; focus on isolating your biceps.
- Keep your wrists straight throughout the exercise.
- Breathe out as you curl up and breathe in as you lower the weights.
