How to: Band Standing Hammer Curl
- Stand in an upright position with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Secure the band under your feet and hold the other end with your palms facing your body.
- Keeping your elbows close to your torso, curl the band up towards your shoulders.
- Pause at the top of the movement, then lower the band back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Common Mistakes
- Using momentum to lift the band instead of controlling the movement.
- Letting the elbows flare out away from the body.
Modifications
- Perform the exercise seated to reduce strain on your back.
- Use a lighter band for those with limited strength.
Tips
- Keep your elbows close to your body throughout the movement.
