How to do it
Keep the back of your shoulders pressed flat against the incline.
- 1
Sit on an incline bench with a dumbbell in each hand, arms fully extended.
- 2
Curl one dumbbell towards your shoulder, rotating your wrist to a supinated position (palm facing up).
- 3
Slowly lower the dumbbell back to the starting position.
- 4
Alternate arms and repeat the curl with the opposite arm.

Continue alternating for the desired number of repetitions.
Expert tip
Keep your elbows stationary and avoid using momentum to curl the weight. Focus on isolating the biceps.
