The Single Arm Bicep Curl is an excellent exercise to gain strength and muscle tone in your arms. It can be performed sitting or standing. Start by holding the weight with a supine grip, resting at your thigh. In a curling motion, slowly bring the weight up to your shoulder keeping your back straight, elbow at your side and your core tight. Using correct form requires keeping your wrist locked during the entire exercise ... assisting the lift with your wrist decreases the integrity of the lever arm established by the exercise. To finish, slowly return the weight back to the starting position, pausing between repetitions to eliminate the assistance of momentum.
Major Muscles Involved: Biceps Brachii, Brachialis, Brachioradialis
