How to do it

  1. Sit on a bench and rest your forearms on your thighs, palms up, wrists just past your knees.
  2. Hold a dumbbell in each hand and let your wrists drop, opening your fingers slightly.
  3. Curl the weight up by closing your fingers and flexing your wrists.
  4. Squeeze at the top, then lower slowly to a full stretch.
  5. Your forearms never leave your thighs - only the wrists move.
