Wide Grip Curl (Band)

A bicep isolation exercise using resistance bands with a wider hand position that emphasizes the outer bicep. Excellent for adding variety to bicep training and isolation work.

Instructions

1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, band anchored under your feet.
2. Grab the band handles with a wide grip, hands positioned wider than shoulder-width.
3. Keep your elbows close to your sides and maintain an upright posture.
4. Curl the band handles upward toward your shoulders by flexing your biceps.
5. Continue the movement until your forearms reach approximately vertical.
6. Squeeze your biceps at the top of the movement.
7. Lower the band back to the starting position with controlled movement.
8. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Tips

• The wider grip emphasizes the outer portion of the biceps.
• Keep your elbows stationary throughout the movement to maintain isolation.
• Avoid using momentum or swinging the weight, focusing on controlled movement.
• The band provides increasing resistance at the top of the movement.
• Proper wrist alignment helps prevent forearm strain.
