Zottman Curl

Starting Position

• grasp a dumbbell with each hand
• the feet are hip width apart, the back straight
• your legs bent a little
• the arms hang down a bit bent, too
• fixate your upper arms close to the torso
• the palms of the hands point forwards
• sight straight ahead

Correct Execution

• guide the weights simultaneously in direction to the shoulders without momentum
• your upper arms and elbows do not move
• if you reach the upper slot, hold it for a short moment and turn your hands until the palms are pointed forwards
• let the weights sink down again
• always keep the arms bent a little
• turn your hands back into the starting position (palms point forwards) and repeat the exercise

tip for the workout

• you can also do this biceps exercise the other way round
• the palms of the hands then point downwards
• turn the hands to the body in the upper slot and slowly bring them down
