Cable Reverse Wrist Curl

The seated palms-down wrist curl with the bar of a low pulley in front of you; the cable keeps pulling through the bottom of the rep.

How to do it

Setup

Facing a low pulley on a bench, forearms along the thighs, bar held overhand beyond the knees.

Steps

  1. Point the knuckles down, letting the cable draw the hands forward.
  2. Raise the bar by extending the wrists against the cable.
  3. Hold the top for a moment, forearms flat.

Common mistakes

Sitting so close the cable goes slack: shuffle back until it pulls at the bottom. Wrists rolling toward the thumbs as they tire: lift straight over the forearm. Stack clanging between reps: stop just short of it.

Breathing

Exhale lifting, inhale lowering.
