EquipmentDumbbell
TypeIsolation
DifficultyBeginner
Primary:Forearms
📋 How to Perform
- Kneel beside a flat bench.
- Place your forearms flat on top of the bench surface.
- Hold a dumbbell in each hand with palms facing down.
- Let your wrists and hands hang off the edge of the bench.
- Extend your wrists upward, bringing the dumbbells toward your forearms.
- Squeeze at the top, then slowly lower back down.
- Repeat for desired reps.
💡 Pro Tips
- Keep your forearms completely still on the bench.
- This targets the extensors on top of your forearms.
- Use lighter weight than regular wrist curls.
⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Letting the hands tilt toward the thumb or pinky side, which shifts tension off the wrist extensors.
- Dropping the dumbbells quickly on the way down, which skips the lowering work the extensors need.
- Stopping before the wrists bend down fully, which skips the stretched range of the wrist extensors.
