Dumbbell Biceps Curl Squat
A squat with the dumbbells hanging at the sides, joined to a curl at the top of every rep; the legs and the arms share the set.
How to do it
Setup
Standing tall, feet shoulder-width, a dumbbell in each hand at the sides, palms forward.
Steps
- Squat down with the bells hanging, chest up.
- Drive up to standing and curl both bells to the shoulders.
- Lower the bells to the sides before the next squat.
Common mistakes
Bells swinging forward in the squat: they hang straight beside the legs. Heels lifting at the bottom: sit back and keep the whole foot down. Curling with a rounded back: stand fully tall before the bells rise.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale standing and curling.
