How to do it
- Stand tall and hold the barbell with an overhand grip, hands about shoulder-width apart.
- Keep your elbows at your sides and curl the bar up toward your shoulders.
- Pause briefly at the top, then lower the bar slowly until your arms are straight.
- Keep your wrists straight in line with your forearms instead of letting them bend back.
Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
