Palms-Down Wrist Curl Over A Bench

Forearms · Barbell

How to do it

Same as the wrist curl but with palms down. Lift the back of your hand as far as you can and lower slowly. It works the extensors, which almost nobody trains and which are usually what fails in tennis elbow. Very light weight: kilos mean nothing here.

Variants

The drawing shows one way of doing it, and the technique above describes that one. Almost every exercise has variants — standing or seated, the grip, the bench angle — and is still the same exercise: if you do it another way, write it in the exercise note and you will have it every time you train it.
