The Lever Reverse Grip Preacher Curl is a strength training exercise that targets the biceps and forearms. It is performed using a lever machine with an angled pad that supports the arms.
How to perform
To perform the Lever Reverse Grip Preacher Curl, follow these steps:1. Adjust the lever machine so that the angled pad is positioned at chest level and the seat is set for a comfortable height.
2. Sit on the seat with your chest against the pad and grasp the bar with an underhand grip (palms facing up) slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
3. Position your upper arms on the angled pad, making sure your elbows are fully extended.
4. Keeping your chest against the pad and your back straight, exhale as you curl the bar towards your shoulders by flexing your elbows.
5. Hold the contracted position at the top of the movement for a brief moment, squeezing your biceps.
6. Inhale as you slowly lower the bar back to the starting position, fully extending your elbows.
7. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
It is important to maintain proper form throughout the exercise to prevent injury and ensure optimal muscle engagement. Start with a light weight to get comfortable with the movement, and gradually increase the resistance as you build strength.
Equipment required
Leverage Machine (Plate Loaded)
Leverage Machine (Plate Loaded) equipment is used for strength training exercises. It consists of a weight-loaded lever system attached to a seat or bench to provide resistance. These machines are designed to target specific muscle groups and allow for controlled and isolated movements to build muscle strength and mass. They are commonly used for exercises such as chest presses, squats, rows, and shoulder presses.
