    Sit on a bench and hold a barbell with an overhand grip, wrists resting on your knees or a flat surface.

  2. 2

    Allow your wrists to flex downward.

  3. 3

    Curl the barbell upwards by extending your wrists.

  4. 4

    Hold the contraction briefly, then slowly lower the barbell back to the starting position.

  5. 5

    Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Perform the movement slowly and with control, avoiding any jerky motions to prevent strain on the wrist joints.
