The Incline Inner Biceps Curl primarily works the biceps. It is a strength movement performed with dumbbell.
1 / 2How to
Movement instructions
Hold a dumbbell in each hand and lie back on an incline bench.
The dumbbells should be at arm's length hanging at your sides and your palms should be facing out. This will be your starting position.
Now as you exhale curl the weight outward and up while keeping your forearms in line with your side deltoids. Continue the curl until the dumbbells are at shoulder height and to the sides of your deltoids. Tip: The end of the movement should look similar to a double biceps pose.
After a second contraction at the top of the movement, start to inhale and slowly lower the weights back to the starting position using the same path used to bring them up.
Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
Technique guidance
Exhale as the target muscle shortens against resistance and inhale during the controlled return. Keep breathing steadily throughout the set.
General guidance based on the exercise and equipment. It is not personal coaching or medical advice.
Your progress
Keep the same dumbbell setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Incline Inner Biceps Curl sessions.
Weight, repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 3 sets of 8 reps at 30 kg. Next time, record the actual result, even if it is the same.
Look for more repetitions at the same weight, or a heavier weight for comparable repetitions. Total weight lifted also changes when you add sets, so it is not a strength score.
