Bottle Hammer Curl

The hammer curl with two filled water jugs held by their handles, thumbs up; a home stand-in for dumbbells.

How to do it

Setup

Standing tall, a filled jug in each hand at the sides, handles gripped thumbs up.

Steps

  1. Curl both jugs toward the shoulders, thumbs up.
  2. Keep the elbows at your sides.
  3. Lower slowly to straight arms.

Common mistakes

Jugs swinging on their handles: slow the curl so the water stays calm. Caps loose: tighten them before the set. Elbows drifting forward: they stay at the sides.

Breathing

Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
