This page will help you learn how to do incline dumbbell bicep curls. Bicep curls are a popular exercise in many different forms, but this page will show you the correct way to do them while seated on an inclined bench. Whether working out at home or in a dedicated fitness facility, knowing the right technique for this exercise can make it more effective as well as more safe. When you perform exercises the correct way, you reduce your chance of injury.

The first step you'll need to take is simply to have a seat on the inclined bench. Make sure that your shoulders are back against the bench so that they don't move. You don't want to stress your shoulders unnecessarily with this exercise, and your biceps are the only muscle group that you're attempting to work with bicep curls.

Once you're confident that you are seated correctly on the inclined bench, you're ready to pick up and lift the dumbbells. It may be best to place the dumbbells on either side of the bench ahead of time so that you can reach them on the floor without moving from the correct seating position on the bench. Simply lift the dumbbells and hold the curl at the top of your lift to make sure your biceps are getting the proper workout.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JONvK1ocwc

In addition to the regular bicep curl, which involves holding the dumbbell horizontally as it's raised, try holding it with the ends facing in front of you and behind you. The motion of your curls should be somewhat similar to the motion of swinging a hammer. The physical movement in each version is the same, but your wrist will be in a different position.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JONvK1ocwc
