Cable Squatting Curl

Squatting deep in front of a low pulley with the elbows braced on the inner thighs, curl a short bar toward the face: a concentration curl for both arms, held in a squat.

How to do it

Setup

Squatting deep facing a low pulley, heels down, the backs of the upper arms against the inner thighs, bar held underhand.

Steps

Curl the bar up toward the face, elbows against the thighs.
Squeeze at the top without rising from the squat.
Lower until the arms hang nearly straight.

Common mistakes

Heels lifting in the deep squat: widen the stance a little. Standing up to move the stack: the squat is the seat; stay in it. Rounding hard over the thighs: chest up, back long.

Breathing

Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
