Standing Bicep Curls

Target Muscles: Biceps

Equipment: Dumbbells

Start: With an underhand grip, hold two dumbbells straight down, at arm's length.

Finish: Curl the weights toward your shoulders. Stop and squeeze when the dumbbells are 6 or 8 inches in front of your shoulders. Hold the contraction for a beat, then slowly return to the starting position. Don't lean back to help yourself lift more weight, and keep your upper arms against your sides throughout the exercises.
