Barbell Curl

Stand tall with your feet shoulder-width apart. Grip a barbell with an underhand grip, hands also shoulder-width apart. Let the barbell hang in front of your thighs with your arms fully extended.

1. Keeping your elbows close to your sides, curl the barbell up towards your shoulders.
2. Squeeze your biceps at the top of the movement.
3. Slowly lower the barbell back to the starting position.

• Keep your upper body stationary.
• Initiate the curl with your biceps, not your back.
• Maintain a neutral wrist position.

• Swinging the weight up using momentum.
• Moving your elbows forward or back.
• Performing partial reps; not going through the full range of motion.
