Dumbbell Reverse Curl

Dumbbell Reverse Curl Instructions

• Feet positioned in an athletic stance slightly outside shoulder-width.
• Your knees are slightly bent and toes pointed straight ahead.
• The core is braced and engaged.
• Shoulders are pinned back with your chest up.
• Grab a pair of dumbbells with an overhand grip.
• The back of your hand is facing straight ahead.
• Maintaining fixed upper arms, use your forearm and bicep to curl the weight up until they reach shoulder height.
• Avoid shrugging your shoulders.
• The biceps and forearms are controlling the movement.
• At the top of the movement, your palms are facing straight ahead.
• Lower the dumbbells back down to starting position.
• Don't "drop" the weight from the top.

*Tips*

• The eccentric portion is just as important as the concentric with arm development.
• The muscle used first will be used the most. Momentum will negate the movement.
