Instructions
1. Start by sitting on a flat bench with your back straight and feet planted firmly on the floor.
2. Hold a dumbbell in each hand with a neutral grip (palms facing each other) and arms hanging by your sides.
3. Without moving your upper arms, exhale and curl one dumbbell toward your shoulder by flexing only your elbow.
4. Squeeze your bicep at the top of the movement and hold for a count, keeping your wrist straight and in line with your forearm.
5. Slowly lower the dumbbell back down to the starting position as you inhale.
6. Alternate arms and perform the curl with the other dumbbell.
7. Continue to alternate between each arm for the desired number of repetitions and sets.
Make sure to perform the exercise with controlled movements and avoid swinging the dumbbells or using momentum to lift the weight. This will help ensure that your biceps and forearms are fully engaged and receiving the maximum benefit from the exercise.
