How To Perform the Cheat Curl

  1. Stand up straight with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a barbell with an underhand grip at shoulder width.
  2. Keep your elbows close to your torso and your back straight.
  3. Begin by curling the barbell up towards your shoulders, using a slight swing of your hips to generate momentum.
  4. Focus on contracting your biceps as you lift, but avoid excessive swinging.
  5. Slowly lower the barbell back to the starting position, controlling the descent.
  6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
