Increase your arm strength and stay active with bicep curls.
Use the tips listed below to help you get started:
- Perform this exercise safely with proper alignment by sitting up straight and rolling your shoulders back.
- Use a sturdy chair that allows you to put both feet on the ground comfortably. Avoid chairs that wheel, rock, or have handles.
- Always check with your doctor before beginning a new type of physical activity, or if you experience any pain or discomfort before or after an activity.
Bicep Curls:
For this exercise, you can use two weights or soup cans to make it more of a strength building exercise, or you can simply start by not using any weights and just performing the movements.
- Start with your arms by your sides and then bend at the elbows until your hands or the soup cans meet your shoulders.
- Slowly, with control, straighten your arms as you lower them to the starting position. Repeat 10-12 times.
