How to do:

1. Sit on a bench with your forearms resting on your thighs, holding a dumbbell or barbell with an underhand grip. 2. Let your wrists hang over the edge of your thighs. 3. Slowly curl the weight upwards by flexing your wrists. 4. Lower the weight back down in a controlled manner. 5. Repeat for 12–15 reps. 6. Complete 3-4 sets.

Tips:

- Keep your forearms stationary and only move your wrists. - Use a light weight to focus on form and control. - Exhale as you curl the weight up, and inhale as you lower it. - Avoid using momentum to lift the weight.
