Exercise Summary

Exercise Name: Standing One Arm Cable Curl
Main Muscle: Biceps
Secondary Muscle(s): Forearms
Exercise Type: Pull, Isolation
Equipment Required: Cable

Exercise Description and Instruction:

This is a single arm version of the Standing Biceps Cable Curl. In each exercise you’ll be using the cable pulley to isolate your biceps.

To Perform This Exercise:

  1. Attach a stirrup bar to a low cable pulley.
  2. Stand of the side of the weight stack with your legs shoulder width apart and your knees slightly bent and your abs drawn in.
  3. Grasp the stirrup in one hand with an underhand grip (palms facing up) and lower the stirrup to the top of your thighs.
  4. Keeping your elbows still, curl the stirrup up towards your chest.
  5. Pause for a moment then slowly lower the stirrup to the starting position. Complete all repetitions with a given arm and then switch arms.

Tips:

  1. Keep your elbows in the same position throughout the exercise. They should be drawn in to your torso, shoulder width apart.
  2. Keep your knees slightly bent to help prevent swinging your torso and “cheating.”
