Hammer Curl
The Hammer Curl is a strength training exercise primarily targeting the biceps and forearms. It involves holding a pair of dumbbells with a neutral grip, meaning the palms face each other. The movement consists of curling the weights upward while keeping the elbows close to the body, then lowering them back to the starting position. This exercise helps improve grip strength and muscle definition.
To perform the Hammer Curl, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold a dumbbell in each hand. Begin with your arms fully extended at your sides. As you curl the weights, focus on engaging your biceps and maintaining proper form. This exercise can be included in a workout routine alongside other exercises like the Bicep Curl and Tricep Extension.
