Machine Preacher Curl
The preacher curl on a machine, where the resistance is even across the range.
How to do it
Setup
Armpits over the pad, handles gripped, back tall.
Steps
- Curl the handles to the machine's top.
- Squeeze for a beat.
- Lower to the full stretch – the machine keeps it honest.
Common mistakes
Seat too low: the armpits ride up and the angle dies; set it first. Rushing the even resistance: it is even so you can go SLOW. Shoulders shrugging: down, arms only.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
