Band Close-Grip Biceps Curl
The band curl with both handles held side by side in front of the body; the narrow grip keeps the elbows tucked close to the torso.
How to do it
Setup
Standing on the band's middle, feet close, both handles side by side in front of the thighs.
Steps
- Curl the handles together up to the upper chest.
- Keep the hands touching and the elbows close to the ribs.
- Lower slowly to long arms.
Common mistakes
Hands drifting apart as the band tightens: keep them together all the way. Elbows flaring out to the sides: they point down and stay close. Band slipping off one foot: stand on its middle with both feet.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
