Instructions
Adjust the preacher bench so your armpits are snug against the top of the pad when seated.
Hold the EZ curl bar with both hands using an underhand grip (palms facing upward).
Sit down on the preacher bench and place the back of your arms against the pad. Extend your arms fully with a slight bend in the elbows to maintain tension on the biceps.
Curl the bar upwards, keeping your upper arms stationary and only moving your forearms.
As you lift, focus on maintaining a neutral wrist position (as shown in the second and fourth images with the green highlighted wrist), avoiding excessive extension or flexion at the wrist.
Raise the bar to shoulder level in a controlled motion before slowly lowering back to the starting position.
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Note: The first and third images show incorrect wrist positions, with the wrists not maintaining neutrality and potentially placing undue stress on the joint. The second and fourth images show the correct form, with green and red highlights on the forearm to indicate the correct and incorrect form, respectively.
