How to do it

The dumbbell incline hammer curl is an effective exercise for targeting the brachialis and brachioradialis muscles in the forearms, as well as the biceps. Performing this exercise on an incline bench increases the range of motion and helps to isolate the arm muscles, providing a more intense workout. Here's how to perform the dumbbell incline hammer curl correctly:

Start by sitting on an incline bench with a dumbbell in each hand, arms to your side, with your feet planted firmly in front of you. Keep your palms are facing in towards each other (i.e. hammer grip) throughout the exercise.

Flex at your elbows bringing the weights up to your shoulders, isolating the forearms and biceps, until you feel tension in the muscles.

Hold for a count then return back to the starting position and repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
