How to perform Cable Concentration Curl with proper form
Setup
- Cable Machine: Attach a straight or EZ curl bar to a low pulley.
- Seating: Sit on a bench close to the machine, with your feet planted on the floor.
Execution
- Grip: Using one hand, grab the bar with an underhand grip (palms facing up).
- Positioning: Rest your elbow on the inside of your thigh, keeping your arm extended fully downward.
- Curl Movement: Engage your bicep to curl the bar upwards towards your shoulder while keeping your elbow stationary against your thigh.
- Contraction: Squeeze the bicep at the top of the movement, ensuring no momentum or swinging.
- Lowering: Slowly return to the starting position, controlling the motion.
Tips
- Maintain a straight back for stability.
- Focus on a slow, controlled motion to maximize muscle engagement.
- Switch arms after completing the desired repetitions.
