Cable Rope One-Arm Hammer Preacher Curl
The rope hammer curl on the preacher bench with one hand on a single rope end; one side works alone, thumb up.
How to do it
Setup
Preacher bench before a low pulley, one arm on the pad, a single rope end held thumb up, free hand on the pad.
Steps
- Curl the rope end up toward the shoulder, thumb on top.
- Pause with the forearm upright.
- Lower slowly; switch arms after the set.
Common mistakes
Hand sliding up the rope: grip it just under the knot. Shoulder shrugging to lift: it stays low and still. Leaning back off the pad: stay forward over it.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
