Alternate Incline Dumbbell Curl vs Cable Preacher Curl

Sit down on an incline bench with a dumbbell in each hand being held at arms length. Tip: Keep the elbows close to the torso.This will be your starting position.

While holding the upper arm stationary, curl the right weight forward while contracting the biceps as you breathe out. As you do so, rotate the hand so that the palm is facing up. Continue the movement until your biceps is fully contracted and the dumbbells are at shoulder level. Hold the contracted position for a second as you squeeze the biceps. Tip: Only the forearms should move.

Slowly begin to bring the dumbbell back to starting position as your breathe in.

Repeat the movement with the left hand. This equals one repetition.

Continue alternating in this manner for the recommended amount of repetitions.

Place a preacher bench about 2 feet in front of a pulley machine.

Attach a straight bar to the low pulley.

Sit at the preacher bench with your elbow and upper arms firmly on top of the bench pad and have someone hand you the bar from the low pulley.

Grab the bar and fully extend your arms on top of the preacher bench pad. This will be your starting position.

Now start pilling the weight up towards your shoulders and squeeze the biceps hard at the top of the movement. Exhale as you perform this motion. Also, hold for a second at the top.

Now slowly lower the weight to the starting position.

Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
