Make every rep count.
- 01
Attach a straight bar to the low pulley and choose an appropriate weight.
- 02
Stand facing the machine with feet shoulder-width apart, knees soft, and core braced.
- 03
Grab the handle with a neutral grip (thumbs pointing up). Start with arms straight and shoulders down and back.
- 04
Keeping your elbows pinned to your sides (don’t let them drift forward), curl the handle up in a smooth, controlled motion.
- 05
Pause at the top and squeeze your biceps.
- 06
Lower slowly to full extension without letting the stack slam—maintain tension the whole way.
- 07
Repeat for your target reps.
