The Dumbbell Over Bench Neutral Wrist Curl is a strength training exercise that specifically targets the muscles in the forearm. This exercise is great for improving grip strength and increasing wrist stability.
How to perform
Step by step instructions:1. Sit on a bench with your feet flat on the floor, holding a dumbbell in each hand with a neutral grip (palms facing each other).
2. Place your forearms on the bench so that your wrists are hanging over the edge.
3. Slowly curl your wrists upwards towards your body, keeping your elbows and forearms stationary.
4. Hold the contraction at the top for a second, then slowly lower the dumbbells back down to the starting position.
5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Note: It is important to start with a light weight when performing this exercise to avoid straining the muscles in your forearm. Gradually increase the weight as you become more comfortable with the movement.
