Dumbbell Standing Zottman Preacher Curl
The Zottman curl standing at a stand-up preacher pad, both bells at once: up palms up, down palms down.
How to do it
Setup
Standing behind a stand-up preacher pad, both upper arms over it, a dumbbell in each hand, palms up.
Steps
- Curl both bells up to the top palms up.
- Rotate the palms down before lowering.
- Lower slowly palms down and turn them back up at the bottom.
Common mistakes
Hips pushing into the pad to start the curl: stand still behind it. Lowering palms down as fast as you lifted: that slow half is the point. Wrists sagging on the palms-down descent: keep them in line with the forearms.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale on the slow lowering.
