How to perform EZ Bar Reverse Wrist Curl with proper form

Purpose: Strengthens the forearm extensors.

Starting Position:

1. Stand or sit on a bench with your feet shoulder-width apart.
2. Hold the EZ bar with an overhand grip (palms facing down).
3. Position your forearms on your thighs or rest them on a flat surface, allowing your wrists to hang off.

Execution:

1. Flex your wrists upward, lifting the EZ bar. Keep your forearms stationary.
2. Squeeze at the top of the movement for a brief moment.
3. Slowly lower the EZ bar back to the starting position, controlling the movement.

Tips:

• Keep your elbows close to your body.
• Avoid using momentum; focus on the muscle contraction.
• Maintain a neutral spine and avoid leaning forward.

Common Mistakes:

• Lifting too heavy, leading to poor form.
• Allowing elbows to flare out or moving them during the curl.

Muscles Worked:

• Forearm extensors.
• Wrists.

Safety:

• Start with a lighter weight to master form before increasing.
