How To Do A Biceps Concentration Curl

     A biceps concentration curl is a type of exercise that increases the overall tension in your bicep muscles. It will work your upper arm and elbow joints, as well as your forearms. This is a great exercise to begin with if you are just beginning weightlifting, or if you have joint pain.

     Bicep concentration curls can be done using only one hand, or you can use both arms at the same time. To do this exercise using only one hand, place your non-working arm on a bench in front of you while keeping your working arm positioned next to it on the ground. Once the weight is added, raise it next to the other arm so that they're side by side. If doing this exercise with both hands at once, extend your arms straight out from your body and lock them into position so that they are parallel to each other. You will then be able to begin lifting weights with either hand. 

Beginners :

     Standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms extended straight out from your body. As you lift the weight, keep both arms parallel to each other.

Advanced :

     The biceps concentration curl can be a great exercise to incorporate into your routine, but it can also be made easier. If you have access to a leg press machine or cable machine, you can implement the biceps concentration curl on these machines instead of using free weights. This will make the exercise more convenient for you, and it will still work the same muscles. The only difference is that the weight will be supported by the machine itself instead of being lifted manually. This variation is also effective because it is easier to control than when using free weights.

Bicep Muscle :

     The biceps brachii muscle is a large muscle that spans the front of the upper arm and attaches to the scapula (shoulder blade). It has two heads, the long head (superficial) and the short head (deep), both of which insert into the humerus. The long head primarily functions in flexion, and the short head primarily functions in extension.

Joints :

     If you're just beginning weightlifting or have joint pain, a biceps concentration curl is an excellent exercise to start with. The biceps and elbow joints are the main joints that are worked by this type of exercise.

Exercise :

     Once the weight is added, raise it next to the other arm so that they're side by side. If doing this exercise with both hands at once, extend your arms straight out from your body and lock them into position so that they are parallel to each other.
