Your shoulders should remain retracted throughout the exercise and elbows should remain pointing downward. This allows the weight to work directly against gravity without displacing the stress to the hinge. ALTERNATING DUMBBELL CURLS In a seated position on an upright bench, perform the curl unilaterally. Begin with your palm in a pronated position and supinate as you go through the con- traction. Raise the weight until it comes close to chin level. As the dumbbells descend, pronate your wrist and begin the exer- cise for the opposite hand. ironmanmagazine.com | APRIL 2017 61
