Area Targeted: Biceps

Hammer Curls With Resistance Bands are super effective for building size and strength in your Biceps and Brachioradialis (Forearms). The Neutral grip can also feel better, as it is easier on your wrists. The pros always mix this exercise in with their arm work for a reason. You should too!

 
 

Follow the instructions below to perform this exercise:

Bands: Attach a closed ankle strap to each end of the band(s) and grip the loop of a strap with each hand. Your fingers should be inside the loop, and thumb on the outside.
