Instructions

  1. 1

    Sit on a flat bench with a dumbbell in your right hand.

  2. 2

    Place your feet flat on the floor, at a distance that is slightly wider than shoulder width apart.

  3. 3

    Lean forward and place your right forearm on top of your upper right thigh with your palm up. Tip: Make sure that the front of the wrist lies on top of your knees. This will be your starting position.

  4. 4

    Lower the dumbbell as far as possible as you keep a tight grip on the dumbbell. Inhale as you perform this movement.

  5. 5

    Now curl the dumbbell as high as possible as you contract the forearms and as you exhale. Keep the contraction for a second before you lower again. Tip: The only movement should happen at the wrist.

  6. 6

    Perform for the recommended amount of repetitions, switch arms and repeat the movement.
