Reverse Plate Curls

Technique

How to perform Reverse Plate Curls

1. Stand with your feet comfortably apart and hold a weight plate in front of your thighs.
2. Take an overhand grip near the upper left and right edges, with your fingers on one face and your thumbs on the other.
3. Keep your wrists aligned and your upper arms beside your torso.
4. Bend your elbows to raise the plate without swinging your body or lifting your upper arms.
5. Stop at the highest position you can reach while keeping that arm position and grip.
6. Lower the plate under control until your arms return to the starting position.
