The Cable Reverse Wrist Curl is an exercise that targets the forearm muscles, specifically the flexor muscles. This exercise helps to improve grip strength and wrist stability.
How to perform
To perform the Cable Reverse Wrist Curl, you will need a cable machine with a wrist curl attachment.1. Start by setting the cable machine at a low height, and attach a straight bar or a rope to the cable.
2. Stand facing the cable machine with your feet shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent.
3. Grasp the bar or rope with an overhand grip (palms facing down) at shoulder width.
4. Keeping your arms straight and elbows close to your body, slowly curl your wrists upwards, bringing the bar or rope towards your body.
5. Squeeze your forearm muscles at the top of the movement, then slowly lower the weight back down to the starting position.
6. Repeat for the desired number of reps.
It is important to use a lighter weight when starting out to ensure proper form and prevent injury. As you become more comfortable with the exercise, you can gradually increase the weight.
