General and Specifics
- biceps (especially the brachialis muscle) and triceps are demanded equally
Starting Position
- sit down on a chair and spread the legs
- tilt the upper body forward a bit
- put one arm to the inner side of your thigh and bend it, the palm points up
- place the other hand on the wrist
Correct Execution
- try to bend the arm against the resistance of the upper hand
- you can give in to the resistance a bit, this will cause a curl movement
- for an effective isometric training, hold the position without motion for about 20 seconds
- switch sides and repeat
