This exercise is ideal for building shape and control in the biceps. Using overhead pulleys increases time under tension and helps isolate the muscles with minimal assistance from other joints.
Instructions
- Set both cable pulleys above shoulder height and attach handles to each side.
- Stand centered between them and grab both handles with an underhand grip.
- Start with arms extended out to the sides, parallel to the floor.
- Curl the handles toward your ears while keeping your elbows in place.
- Squeeze the biceps at the top, then return slowly to the start.
