Tips

  • Controlled Movement: When you curl the towel upwards towards your shoulders, make sure to do it in a controlled manner. Do not use your back or shoulders to lift the weight; your biceps should do all the work. Jerky movements can cause harm and reduce the effectiveness of the exercise.
  • Full Range of Motion: To get the maximum benefit from the Two Legs Hammer Curl with Towel, ensure you're using a full range of motion. Lower the towel all the way down before curling it back up. Not using the full range of motion can limit the growth and strength of your biceps.
