Exercise Description

The standing alternate dumbbell reverse curl builds stronger forearms and better grip strength. It targets muscles that regular curls miss.

How To

1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart holding dumbbells at your sides with overhand grip 2. Keep your elbows locked at your sides and curl one dumbbell up by flexing your wrist and forearm 3. Squeeze your forearms at the top of the standing alternate dumbbell reverse curl movement 4. Lower the weight slowly back to starting position with control 5. Repeat with the other arm and continue alternating arms for your standing alternate dumbbell reverse curl reps

Form Tips

• Keep your wrists straight throughout the entire standing alternate dumbbell reverse curl movement • Don't swing or use momentum - let your forearms do all the work • Focus on the squeeze at the top of each rep for maximum muscle activation • Start light with the standing alternate dumbbell reverse curl until you build strength

Common Mistakes

• Using too much weight and sacrificing form in the standing alternate dumbbell reverse curl • Bending the wrists backward which can cause injury • Moving too fast and not controlling the weight during the standing alternate dumbbell reverse curl
