Dumbell curls
Video Transcript
This exercise is called the dumbbell curl. It focuses on strengthening the front of the arm, the bicep. So stand with your feet hip-width apart, arms to your sides, and slowly curl the dumbbell up and then gently down again. Make sure you alternate each arm and keep a nice, steady pace. Not too fast. And always remember, keep that tummy tight and eyes looking forward.
1. Standing with your feet about shoulder width apart, place your arms by your sides with your palms facing in towards your thighs.
2. Curl your wrist towards your shoulder, keeping your palm facing your body and your elbow locked in to your side.
3. Extend down, alternating arms.
