Now, while keeping your upper arms stationary, exhale and curl the weights while contracting your biceps. Continue to raise the weights until your biceps are fully contracted and the dumbbells are at shoulder level. Hold the contracted position for a brief pause as you squeeze your biceps.
Then inhale and slowly begin to lower the dumbbells back to the starting position.
Repeat the process for the recommended amount of repetitions.
Remember to keep your elbows close to your torso at all times and do not use your back or shoulders to lift the weights; your biceps should do all the work.
Pro Tip
Weight Selection: Select a weight that is challenging but allows you to maintain proper form throughout the entire set. Using a weight that is too heavy can lead to improper form and increase your risk of injury. Controlled Movement: Avoid quick, jerky movements. Instead, perform the exercise in a slow, controlled manner. Lift the weight up for a count of two, pause at the top, then lower it back down for a count of three. Avoid Using Your Back: A common mistake is to use the back to help lift the weight. This not only reduces the effectiveness of the exercise
