How to do it

  1. Adjust the seat so the top of the pad reaches your armpits and your elbows line up with the pivot.
  2. Grab the handles with an underhand grip and lay your upper arms flat on the pad.
  3. Curl the handles up, squeeze your biceps, then return them slowly.
  4. Keep your upper arms on the pad and stop just short of locking your elbows at the bottom.

Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
