incline. Knees can rest on seat or legs can be straddled to sides.
From elevated platform or partner, grasp dumbbell and position
palms forward.
Execution
- Raise dumbbells until arms are flexed. Lower dumbbells until

significantly more than short head (medial head) of biceps brachii
since short head enters into active
