Standing dumbbell curl


Target: Biceps

Form tips:

  • Set up with your body in a straight line and core and glutes engaged – the only movement should be from your arms.
  • Control the curl and avoid momentum from your lower body to ensure you're working the biceps.
  • Don't rest your arms at the top or bottom of the curl – keep moving to maintain tension in your biceps.

Modification – Dumbbell concentrated curls:

  • If you're not feeling the bicep contraction, zoom in with a concentrated curl.
