How to do it

  1. 1

    Barbell reverse curl is a highly effective arm exercise that works your wrists and biceps.

  2. 2

    This exercise can help you handle heavier loads in the standard biceps curl. It can also help correct muscle imbalance between the extensor and flexor muscles. On top of that, it is an effective movement for building bigger arms and improving biceps flexibility.

  3. 3

    When you strengthen your wrists and forearms, you can lift more weight in other exercises. If you cannot lift your body weight, weak wrists and arms may be the reason. Adding wrist and forearm work to your training plan will build strong wrist flexors.
