Bicep Exercises:
Dumbbell Bicep Curls
Bicep Building Exercises

Dumbbell Bicep Curls are one of the best bicep building exercises and they are also a great arm toning exercise.

If you want to improve the way your arms look, dumbbell curls are a great arm exercise.

If your main goal is strength and lean mass development, aim for 4-12 repetitions.

If your goal is toning and endurance aim for 8-15 repetitions.

Bicep Exercises: Dumbbell Curls

Starting Position: Simply begin by holding dumbbells in both hands.

Form: Exhale and slowly bend your elbows towards your chest. Hold briefly at the top of the motion, before slowly lowering to the starting position.

Personal Trainer Tips: Move in a slow and controlled manner. If you move too quickly, momentum will take over and your biceps will actually work a less when momentum takes over.

One of the main compensations during this bicep exercise is arching the back to assist in lifting the weight. If your back moves, that is a sign that the weight is too heavy, so try a lighter weight or do less repetitions on the next set.

Another great biceps exercise is the barbell curl.
