Exercise Description

Barbell Reverse Wrist Curl strengthens the muscles located along the forearm, such as the radialis brevis, extensor digitorum muscles, the brachioradialis, and the various flexor muscles atop the radius and ulna. It also increases flexibility.

Exercise Instructions

  • Step 1

    Sitting on a bench, grab the bar with your palms down and open your arms shoulder-width apart. Place your forearms on your hips and let your wrists hang over your knees.
  • Step 2

    Bend your knuckles towards your face as you lift the bar. Hold the upper position for a moment, then slowly return the bar to the starting position.
