Two Legs Hammer Curl with Towel
The towel hammer curl started from a reclined sit with the legs long; the arms pull the torso upright as the knees come in.
How to do it
Setup
Sitting reclined with the legs long, a towel around both legs, ends held thumbs up, arms straight.
Steps
- Bend the elbows to draw the torso up off the lean.
- Let the knees bend in as the torso rises.
- Lean back to the start slowly, arms straightening.
Common mistakes
Heaving with the back instead of the arms: bend the elbows first. Rounding hard through the neck: keep the head in line. Falling back out of the top: control the lean.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
