Description

This cable exercise is an exercise to strengthen the biceps using the cable as resistance. The SZ bar gives us a more comfortable wrist position than with a straight bar.
Exercise

Cable Curls

With SZ bar, inverted
Type: Bilateral Rest: 120s Equipment: Kabelzug

Tutorial

  1. 1
    Position the cable at foot height and attach a SZ bar. Stand upside down (back facing the cable tower) in front of the cable tower.
  2. 2
    Grip the SZ bar with an underhand grip (palms facing diagonally upwards/inside). Keep your back straight and your shoulders fixed (shoulder blades back and then down).
  3. 3
    Bend your arms forcefully until your hands are close to your shoulders. Keep your upper arms and shoulders in the same position throughout the exercise. Breathe out as you do so.
  4. 4
    Extend your arms slowly and in a controlled manner until they are stretched out again in the starting position. Breathe in as you do so.
  5. 5
    One repetition has now been completed. Repeat this process for the specified number of repetitions.
Tip
It is important to maintain good form throughout the exercise and ensure that the elbow remains close to the body. Also make sure to perform the movement slowly and in a controlled manner to maximize tension on the biceps and avoid injury. Use the full range of motion and keep the wrist straight and stable so as not to overload the forearm. Only work from the biceps muscles.
