Technique

How to perform Band Bicep Curl

  1. Stand on the middle of the tube band with both feet and hold a handle in each hand.
  2. Start with your arms by your sides and an overhand grip, with enough tension to take up slack.
  3. Keep your upper arms still as you bend your elbows and turn your forearms so your palms face upward during the curl.
  4. Keep your wrists aligned with your forearms rather than bending them to lift the handles.
  5. Lower your hands under control, returning toward the starting overhand position.
  6. Repeat without swinging your torso or moving your elbows forward.
