Reverse Wrist Curl (Cable)

How to do it

1. Attach a straight bar or handle to a low pulley and sit or kneel with your forearm resting flat on a bench.
2. Take an overhand grip on the handle with your palm facing down and your wrist hanging just past the edge of the bench.
3. Brace your core to keep your torso still, then extend your wrist upward, lifting the handle by pulling your knuckles toward you.
4. Keep your forearm pinned to the bench throughout, isolating the movement to the wrist joint only.
5. Squeeze briefly at the top of the extension before lowering the handle under control back to a fully flexed wrist.
6. Exhale as you lift and inhale as you lower, using a light load and slow tempo to keep momentum out of the movement.
