Dumbbell Curls

Form Cues

• Stand hip-width apart holding a dumbbell in each hand, palms facing up

• Keep your back straight, chest up, and core engaged

• Pin your elbows firmly to the sides of your torso

• Curl both dumbbells up toward your shoulders by contracting the biceps

• Squeeze at the top, then lower slowly over 2 seconds

• Extend your arms fully at the bottom without losing tension

• Keep your wrists straight — avoid bending them back or forward

• Do not swing the weights or rock your body for momentum
