Exercise Description

The smith machine seated wrist curl exercise builds forearm strength and grip power. Perfect for stronger wrists and better performance in pulling exercises.

How To

1. Sit on a bench facing the smith machine with your forearms resting on your thighs 2. Grab the bar with an underhand grip, hands shoulder-width apart 3. Let your wrists drop below your knees, feeling a stretch in your forearms 4. Curl your wrists up by flexing your forearms, lifting the bar as high as possible 5. Lower the bar slowly back to starting position and repeat for desired reps

Form Tips

• Keep your forearms pressed against your thighs throughout the smith machine seated wrist curl • Move only your wrists - your arms should stay completely still • Use a full range of motion for maximum forearm development • Start light and focus on controlled movements rather than heavy weight

Common Mistakes

• Using your biceps instead of just your wrists during the smith machine seated wrist curl • Moving too fast and bouncing the weight at the bottom • Lifting your forearms off your thighs which reduces stability and effectiveness
