Reverse-Grip Cable Curl
The reverse curl at the low pulley, with tension held through the top.
How to do it
Setup
Overhand grip on the low-pulley bar, elbows pinned.
Steps
- Curl the bar up, knuckles leading.
- Hold the top briefly under the cable's pull.
- Lower with tension to long arms.
Common mistakes
Losing the top hold: the cable keeps tension THERE; that is why this variant exists. Wrists bending back: firm line. Body English: quiet torso, the stack is honest.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
