The Dumbbell One Arm Reverse Wrist Curl is an exercise that targets the forearm muscles, specifically the extensor muscles on the top of the forearm. This exercise helps to improve grip strength and forearm endurance.
How to perform
To perform the Dumbbell One Arm Reverse Wrist Curl, follow these step-by-step instructions:1. Start by sitting on a bench or chair with your feet firmly planted on the floor and a dumbbell in one hand.
2. Rest your forearm on your thigh with your wrist hanging over the edge.
3. Hold the dumbbell with an overhand grip (palm facing down) with your arm fully extended and your wrist in a neutral position.
4. Slowly lower the dumbbell towards the floor by flexing your wrist, keeping your forearm still and your grip tight.
5. Pause at the bottom of the movement, then slowly raise the dumbbell back up towards the starting position by extending your wrist.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch to the other arm.
It's important to use a weight that is challenging but still allows you to maintain proper form throughout the exercise. Keep your movements controlled and avoid swinging the weight to prevent injury. Remember to breathe steadily throughout the movement and focus on engaging the forearm muscles during each repetition.
