Exercise Description

The seated hammer wrist curl builds forearm strength and grip power. It targets your wrist flexors to improve grip endurance for lifting and daily tasks.

How To

1. Sit on a bench with dumbbells in both hands using a neutral grip 2. Rest your forearms on your thighs with wrists hanging over your knees 3. Keep your thumbs pointing up throughout the entire seated hammer wrist curl movement 4. Curl your wrists up by flexing your forearms, lifting the weights as high as possible 5. Lower the weights slowly back to starting position and repeat the seated hammer wrist curl

Form Tips

• Keep your forearms pressed against your thighs during the entire seated hammer wrist curl • Move only at the wrists - your arms stay still • Use a full range of motion for maximum muscle activation in your seated hammer wrist curl • Control the weight on the way down to build strength

Common Mistakes

• Using your arms instead of just wrists ruins the seated hammer wrist curl effectiveness • Going too fast reduces muscle tension and wastes your time • Not using full range of motion limits the seated hammer wrist curl benefits
