Wrist Curl With Barbell, Underhand Grip, Seated

Starting Position

• pick up a barbell with under hand grip (backs of the hands are turned to the body)
• sit down on a weight bench or a chair
• slightly bend your upper body forwards
• keep the back straight
• the knees are shoulder width apart, so that you can rest the forearms on them
• the wrists emerge a bit and are still moveable

Correct Execution

• let the barbell sink down by stretching the wrists down
• you can additionally let the barbell roll down in your hands until you only hold them with the fingers
• guide the barbell up again by bending the wrists up as high as you can, do not use momentum
• the motion only happens in the wrists
• the forearms stay onto your thighs and do not move
• repeat the forearm exercise several times
