December -- Incline Bicep Curl

 

The bicep curl performed on an incline bench raises the degree of difficulty. Performed correctly, without incorporating other muscles, it notably targets the bicep and is an excellent exercise for bicep isolation.
 

  • Sit with back resting on an incline bench. Your back should be flat to the bench by drawing in abdominals so you are not arching your back.
  • Arms at your sides, hands faced out holding dumbbells, feet flat on floor.
  • Exhale as you lift forearms to bring dumbbells to each side of chest, keeping upper arms still. Squeeze your biceps at top of the movement.
  • Inhale as you return arms to starting position.
    Do two to three sets of 12-15 repetitions.
     

Tips on Form: Avoid moving upper arm, keep stable.
Advanced Tip: Increase weight or add a set.
