Instructions:

  • 1Sit on an incline bench with a dumbbell in each hand hanging down at arm's length

  • 3Continue raising the weights until your biceps are fully contracted and the dumbbells are at shoulder level
  • 4Lower the dumbbells to the starting position
  • 5Repeat for the desired amount of repetitions

Tips:

  • Keep your elbows close to your torso at all times
  • Do not use your back or shoulders to lift the weights; your forearms should do all the work
  • Perform the movement slowly and deliberately, avoiding any momentum or swinging
  • Ensure your biceps are doing the work, not your shoulders or back
