  • Attach a rope attachment to a low pulley and stand facing the machine about 12 inches away from it.

  • Grasp the rope with a neutral (palms-in) grip and stand straight up keeping the natural arch of the back and your torso stationary.

  • Put your elbows in by your side and keep them there stationary during the entire movement. This will be your starting position.

  • Using your biceps, pull your arms up as you exhale until your biceps touch your forearms. 

  • After a 1 second contraction where you squeeze your biceps, slowly start to bring the weight back to the original position.

  • Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

TIPS

  • Focus on keeping the elbow stationary and only moving your forearm.
