The One Arm Overhead Biceps Curl exercise is a variation of the traditional biceps curl that specifically targets the biceps muscle while also engaging the deltoids and core muscles.
How to perform
To perform the One Arm Overhead Biceps Curl exercise, follow these steps:1. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, holding a dumbbell in one hand with your palm facing up.
2. Engage your core muscles to maintain a stable and strong stance.
3. Raise the dumbbell overhead, fully extending your arm and keeping it close to your ear.
4. Slowly lower the dumbbell back down towards your shoulder, keeping your elbow close to your body and maintaining control throughout the movement.
5. Extend your elbow and raise the dumbbell back up to the starting position.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other arm.
Remember to control the movement and avoid swinging the weight to prevent injury. It is important to use a weight that challenges your muscles but still allows you to maintain proper form throughout the exercise.
Equipment required
Band
Band equipment consists of elastic bands or tubes that provide resistance during exercises. They are commonly used to strengthen and tone muscles, improve flexibility, and increase range of motion. Bands are versatile and can be used for a variety of exercises targeting different muscle groups, making them suitable for strength training, rehabilitation, and physical therapy. The resistance levels can be adjusted based on the tension of the band, allowing for progressive overload and customization for individual fitness levels.
