Cable Biceps Curl

Description

Biceps Curls using cable are a great way to isolate and strengthen your biceps muscles. Here are the steps to perform this exercise:

  1. Attach a straight or curved bar to the low pulley of a cable machine and adjust the weight according to your fitness level.
  2. Stand facing the machine with your feet shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent. Grab the bar with an underhand grip, palms facing up, and hands shoulder-width apart.
  3. Keep your elbows close to your sides and your upper arms stationary. Curl the bar up towards your chest, contracting your biceps and exhaling.
  4. Pause at the top of the movement and squeeze your biceps for a second. Then slowly lower the bar back to the starting position, inhaling and extending your arms fully.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
