Bicep Curl Machine

How to do it

  1. Sit at the machine and adjust the seat so the elbows line up with the pivot point, resting on the pad.
  2. Grip the handles with the palms facing up and set the shoulders back and down.
  3. Curl the handles up toward the shoulders by flexing the biceps, keeping the elbows fixed on the pad.
  4. Squeeze the biceps hard at the top of the curl.
  5. Lower the handles back down over a 3 count until the arms are fully extended.
  6. Keep the wrists straight instead of lifting the elbows off the pad to cheat the weight up.
