Wrist curls (Barbell)


COURTESY OF GLOBAL FITNESS

Major muscles used

  • Forearms - Inner

Performing wrist curls

  • Sit at the end of a bench with your legs slightly wider than hip-width apart.
  • Hold a barbell with an underhand grip (palms facing up) about 6-8 inches apart, with your hands slightly over your knees.
  • The top-side of your forearms should be resting on your thighs.
  • Keeping your arms stationary, curl the barbell up (at wrists) towards your body as far as possible.
  • Hold for a brief second flexing your forearms.
  • Return to the starting position in a slow, controlled manner.

Be careful

  • Don't allow your arm to rise up off your thigh. Your arms should be stationary at all times.
