How to do concentration curls
Concentration
curls are a great way to ensure that you use
strict form on your curls. Because they're
a little harder, you'll have to use less weight
than you normally do when curling
barbells. This fantastic dumbbell curl
movement will add peak and definition to your
biceps. Again, using light weight is the
key to this exercise.
Here
is how you would perform this exercise.
1.
With a dumbbell in your hand, sit on a bench
and lean forward and rest your arm on the inner
part of your thigh.
2.
Your palm should be facing your opposite thigh.
3.
Raise dumbbell by slowly bending to a point just
short of your shoulder.
4.
Lower the dumbbell by slowly straightening your
elbow to the starting position.
Don'ts
-Lean
or rock backward and forward in an effort hoist
the dumbbell up—you could hurt your
back. If your form isn't perfect,
immediately lessen the weight.
-Move
your leg side to side in an effort to help you
lift the weight.
Do's
-Keep
your abdomen tight and your back erect as you
are leaning forward.
