Finger Curls

Build grip strength with this forearm isolation movement.

Finger Curls isolate your grip muscles by using the fingers rather than the wrists. They're especially useful for climbers, lifters, and strongman athletes.

Instructions

  1. Sit or stand holding a barbell with palms facing up and hands shoulder-width apart.
  2. Let the bar roll toward your fingertips, extending your fingers downward.
  3. Curl your fingers to bring the bar back into your palm, squeezing tightly.
  4. Hold briefly, then repeat for reps.
