Starting Position
- grasp a dumbbell with each hand

- 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
