How to: Dumbbell Seated Neutral Wrist Curl
- Sit on a bench or chair with a dumbbell in each hand, arms resting on your thighs.
- Position your palms facing up and your wrists just at the edge of your knees.
- Curl the dumbbells upwards by flexing your wrists while keeping your forearms stationary.
- Pause at the top of the movement before slowly lowering the dumbbells back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Common Mistakes
- Bending the wrists too much during the curl.
- Using a weight that is too heavy, causing poor form.
- Not controlling the motion, leading to momentum-driven reps.
Modifications
- Use a lighter weight or resistance band for beginners.
- Perform the exercise seated on a bench for additional support.
Tips
- Keep your wrists straight during the exercise to avoid strain.
- Start with a lighter weight to master the form before increasing resistance.
- Perform the movement slowly to maximize muscle engagement.
