Incline Curl (Cable)

Bicep isolation exercise using cable machine on an incline bench to maximize bicep stretch and contraction.

Instructions

1. Attach handles to the cable machine at the lowest position.
2. Set up an incline bench positioned away from the cable machine, facing toward it.
3. Sit on the incline bench with your back firmly against the backrest.
4. Grasp the cable handles with an underhand grip, allowing your arms to hang naturally at your sides.
5. Keep your elbows fixed at your sides and curl the handles upward by flexing your biceps.
6. Continue until your forearms are vertical and the handles reach shoulder height.
7. Squeeze your biceps at the peak contraction.
8. Slowly lower the handles back to the starting position with control.
9. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Tips

• The incline position provides a greater stretch at the starting position
• Keep your elbows pinned to your sides throughout the entire movement
• Avoid swinging or using momentum to lift the weight
• The cable provides constant tension throughout the range of motion
• Focus on the mind-muscle connection with your biceps
