Hammer Curls

Step 3:
Pull the shoulders back and keep the upper arms tucked into the body.

Step 4:
Curl the dumbbells from the sides until shoulder height.

Step 5:
Pause briefly, extend the elbows to straighten the arms and lower to the start position.

Step 6:
Maintain a straight back throughout the movement.
