Bicep Curl - Cables

Standing with your feet hip width apart, keeping your knees slightly bent and maintaining good posture (tummy tight; shoulders back; chest out; chin in). Now bend your knees to pick up the cable's straight handle (keeping your back straight). Hold it with your hands shoulder width apart and your palms facing forwards. Stand up straight using your legs and maintaining a straight back and keeping a slight bend in the knees.

Bring your arms up and in towards your body by bending them at the elbow, keeping your elbows tucked into your sides. Once you are as far as you can go slowly lower the cable handle back to the starting position.

Make sure with this exercise that you don't allow your elbows to come forwards or allow your shoulders to do some of the work by shrugging.

Do breathe out on the way up and in on the way down Do keep your elbows down by your side Do keep a slow and controlled movement Do keep good posture throughout Do have your hands shoulder width apart Do keep the only movement at your elbow joint	Don't hold your breath Don't swing the handle up Don't let your elbows come forwards Don't shrug your shoulders during the movement Don't arch your back to aid the movement
