How to do the EZ-Bar Seated Wrist Curl

  2. Lean forward and grasp an Ez-bar with an underhand grip (palms facing up), hands about shoulder-width apart.

  3. Place your forearms on your thighs with your wrists just beyond your knees.

  4. Let the bar roll down to your fingers while maintaining a grip, allowing for a stretch in your forearm muscles.
