Instructions:

  • 1Hold a dumbbell in each hand with your arms fully extended and your palms facing backward.
  • 2Lower the divot below your pinky towards your wrist as far as possible.
  • 3Curl your fingers up as high as possible.
  • 4Lower the weights by only letting your fingers extend, not your arms.
  • 5Repeat for the prescribed number of repetitions.

Tips:

  • Avoid initiating the movement from your wrists or arms, the fingers should be doing all the work.
  • Focus on the eccentric part of the movement for even better results.
  • Remember to control the movement at all times, do not use momentum to lift the weights.
  • Use an appropriate weight. If it's too heavy, you'll struggle with form.
