Dumbbells Biceps Curl Incline (alternating) Tips

  1. Start by adjusting the incline bench to a comfortable angle, ensuring your back is supported and your feet firmly planted on the ground. This will help maintain stability throughout the exercise and allow you to focus on engaging your biceps.
  2. Hold a dumbbell in each hand, with your palms facing forward and your arms fully extended. Keep your elbows close to your sides, as this will help isolate your biceps and prevent unnecessary strain on your shoulders.
  3. As you begin the exercise, exhale and slowly lift one dumbbell towards your shoulder, focusing on contracting your biceps. Keep your wrist straight and avoid using momentum to swing the weight up, as this can diminish the effectiveness of the exercise.
  4. At the top of the movement, pause for a brief moment and squeeze your biceps before slowly lowering the dumbbell back to the starting position. Remember to maintain control throughout the entire range of motion, both during the lifting and lowering phases.
  5. Alternate between your left and right arms, performing the same controlled movement with each repetition. Aim for a slow and steady pace, focusing on the mind-muscle connection to ensure maximum engagement of your biceps. As you progress, gradually increase the weight of the dumbbells to continue challenging your muscles and promoting growth.
