Cable Single Arm Curl
How to do it
- Attach a single handle to a low pulley and stand side-on to the machine, taking the handle in the hand farthest from the stack with an underhand grip.
- Stand with your feet staggered for a stable base and let your arm extend fully so the cable pulls your hand toward the machine.
- Brace your core and keep your working elbow pinned to your ribs for the entire set.
- Curl the handle up toward your shoulder, rotating your palm slightly upward and squeezing the biceps hard at the top.
- Exhale on the way up and inhale as you lower the handle back to a full stretch under control.
- Avoid twisting your torso to swing the handle up; keep the rotation confined to your forearm and wrist.
