How to do it

  1. 01

    Lie against an incline bench, with your arms holding a barbell and hanging down in a horizontal line. This will be your starting position.

  2. 02

    While keeping the upper arms stationary, curl the weight up as high as you can while squeezing the biceps. Breathe out as you perform this portion of the movement. Tip: Only the forearms should move. Do not swing the arms.

  3. 03

    After a second contraction, slowly go back to the starting position as you inhale. Tip: Make sure that you go all of the way down.

  4. 04

    Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

In the app

Barbell Curls Lying Against An Incline appears when you own a barbell and the day's window has room for it. Loads come from Rule 3 (Loads rise when earned, read from RPE, graded strong) and climb on the reps you actually did.

If a machine is taken the engine swaps a same-pattern movement and says why.

If you don't have a barbell

Same movement pattern, same primary muscles — swap by what you have.
