Dumbbell Seated Zottman Curl
The Zottman curl seated on the end of a bench: up palms up, turned over at the top, down palms down; sitting removes any swing.
How to do it
Setup
Seated on the end of a flat bench, dumbbells at the sides, palms forward.
Steps
- Curl both bells up palms up.
- Rotate both palms down at the top.
- Lower slowly palms down; turn them back up at the bottom.
Common mistakes
Turning the hands halfway: rotate only at the top and at the bottom. Rushing the palms-down half: it is the slow half of the rep. Swinging the bells off the bench: sit tall and still.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale on the slow lowering.
