Step by step
- Attach a short bar to the low pulley and select a manageable weight.
- Face the machine and grip the bar with palms forward. Keep your torso upright.
- Hold your upper arms beside your ribs and curl the bar toward your shoulders.
- Return slowly without letting the stack slam down or your shoulders roll forward.
Common mistakes
- Leaning backward to lift the weight.
- Moving the shoulders instead of keeping the upper arms steady.
