Wrist Curl

How to

Barbell
  1. 1 Forearms on the thighs, palms up, bar in hand.
  2. 2 Curl the wrists up.
  3. 3 Lower slowly to a full stretch.

Tips

  • Let the bar roll down to the fingertips, then curl it back into the palm.
  • Light weight and 15 to 25 reps.
  • Sit with the forearms flat on the thighs and the wrists just past the knees.

Common mistakes

  • Lifting the forearms off the thighs.
  • Bouncing through tiny reps.
  • Loading heavy enough to strain the wrists.
