Alternating Hammer Curls
– stand with feet shoulder width apart, arms down at the sides holding dumbbells, engage your core for stability
– raise the right dumbbell, keeping your palm facing inwards while curling the weight towards your shoulder
– squeeze the bicep at the top of the movement before slowly lowering back to your side
– the elbow should stay fixed tight against the body throughout the movement
– avoid swaying the body to create momentum, use lighter weight if you need this momentum to move the dumbbell
– repeat this process while alternating arms, curling with the right and then the left
– complete desired reps on each arm, focusing on squeezing the biceps during the curl
