Strength exercise
TRX Bicep Curl
How to do it
- Set the suspension trainer straps to a mid length and step back to lean your body away from the anchor point at an angle.
- Grip a handle in each hand with palms facing up and arms extended toward the anchor.
- Brace your core to keep your body rigid in a straight line from head to heels as you lean back.
- Curl your body up toward your hands by bending the elbows, driving the contraction through the biceps while your core resists the pull.
- Exhale as you curl up and inhale as you extend back out to the starting lean.
- Avoid letting your hips sag or your lower back arch; keep the plank position locked throughout the curl.
