How do you perform a Bicep Curl?

  • Stand up straight with your feet hip-width apart and hold a weight in each hand.
  • Keep your arms at your sides and pull the weights up to your shoulders.
  • Hold for a second, then slowly lower back down.
  • Keep your core engaged and breathe regularly.
  • Focus on using your biceps to lift the weights.
  • Avoid swinging your arms or your upper body to create momentum.

Common faults

  • Insufficient contraction of the biceps during the exercise.
  • Lifting the shoulders during the movement.
  • Your elbows don’t stay low against your body during the movement.
  • Swing with your upper body.
