Spider Curl

How to

Dumbbell
  1. 1 Lie chest-down on an incline bench, arms hanging.
  2. 2 Curl the dumbbells up without moving the elbows.
  3. 3 Lower to full extension.

Tips

  • The arms hang straight down, so the biceps work hardest at the top.
  • Use light dumbbells and strict reps.
  • An EZ bar works on the same bench.

Common mistakes

  • Swinging the elbows forward.
  • Lifting the chest off the bench.
  • Partial reps.
