How to do the EZ-Bar Seated Reverse Wrist Curl
Start by sitting on a flat bench with your feet placed firmly on the floor, shoulder-width apart.
Grasp an EZ bar with an overhand grip (palms facing downwards), hands shoulder-width apart.
Rest your forearms on your thighs with the wrists just beyond your knees. Allow your wrists to flex towards the floor, which is the starting position of the exercise.
Without lifting your arms off your thighs, curl the bar upwards by extending your wrists. Lift the bar as far as possible while flexing your forearm muscles.
Hold the contraction at the top for a brief moment and then slowly lower the bar back to the starting position.
Perform the desired number of repetitions and sets, ensuring that you maintain proper form throughout the exercise. Keep your back straight and avoid using momentum.
Remember to select an appropriate weight that allows you to complete your set with controlled motion and proper form. Do not overload the bar, as this could increase the risk of injury.
