Floor Close Grip Curl

Lie on your back holding a suitably weighted barbell at arms length above your shoulders, with your hands 6 – 8 inches apart.

START
start with straight arms - hands close together
FINISH
avoid arching the back as you lower and raise the weight

Smoothly lower the barbell to the floor, keeping your upper arms vertical, enabling all the movement to come from the elbow joint, keeping your arms close to your head throughout, in order to help isolate the tricep muscle.

By keeping your legs bent, you will help keep your back on the floor throughout the movement.
