Preacher Hammer Dumbbell Curl
A bicep exercise done on a preacher bench with a neutral grip, aiming to isolate the biceps thoroughly.
Instructions
- Sit on a preacher bench with a dumbbell in each hand, arms extended on the bench, using a neutral grip.
- Curl the dumbbells towards your shoulders, keeping your upper arms stationary.
- Pause at the top of the contraction, squeezing your biceps.
- Slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of reps.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Lifting too heavy, leading to poor form and reduced range of motion.
- Using momentum to lift the dumbbells instead of targeting the biceps.
- Failing to fully extend the arms at the bottom to maximize range of motion.
