Hammer Curl

Build strong arms using a neutral grip curl.

Hammer curls offer great forearm engagement while helping round out your biceps shape. They’re straightforward and beginner-friendly.

Instructions

  1. Stand tall with a dumbbell in each hand, arms hanging at your sides, palms facing in.
  2. Keep your elbows close to your torso. Curl the dumbbells upward in a smooth arc.
  3. Pause at the top of the movement when your hands are near shoulder height.
  4. Lower the weights with control to return to the starting position.
