Concentration Curl

Seated, elbow braced on the inner thigh; curl the dumbbell up and lower slowly.

How to do it

Setup

Seated, elbow braced against the inner thigh, dumbbell hanging; other hand on the other knee.

Steps

  1. Curl the bell toward the shoulder.
  2. Keep the elbow pinned to the thigh.
  3. Lower slowly to a full hang.

Common mistakes

Elbow sliding off the thigh: re-brace; the pin is the exercise. Leaning back to finish: the torso stays still. Fast drops: the slow lowering is the growth half.

Breathing

Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
