Exercise Description and Instruction:
This version of the Bicep Curl throws in one of the best, Weight Training Exercises, the Squat.
Due to the bicep curl portion of the exercise, you can only use a limited amount of weight. Therefore, this exercise is primarily a bicep exercise. If you can’t squat more than you can curl, then you either have bigger arms than anyone in the world or some pretty serious leg problems.
To Perform This Exercise:
- Stand with your feet shoulder width apart, your knees slightly bent and your abs drawn in.
- Grasp a dumbbell in each hand and curl your arms by bending at the elbows, bringing your wrists to your shoulders, and keeping your elbows in a locked position.
- Extend your arms and return the dumbbells to the starting position at your sides.
- While bending at the waist, squat down and descend until thighs are just past parallel to floor.
- Return to the starting position by extending your knees and hips until your legs are straight.
- Repeat the exercise for the prescribed number of repetitions.
Tips:
- Perform this exercise in front of a mirror at first so that you can monitor and correct your form.
- Keep your head facing forward, your back straight, your chest high, and your feet flat on floor. Your knees should point same direction as feet throughout movement.
- Focus on keeping your elbows locked in during the bicep curl portion of the exercise.
- While squatting, focus on staying back on your heels with your back straight.
