Arm curl strength equipment

Arm curl

— exercise for bending the arms in the elbows with weights. In the classic version, the fist holding the weight is placed horizontally with the palm up, and the main load goes to the biceps, but another grip option is also possible — vertical (hammer), aimed mainly at the brachioradialis muscle. Anyway, the exercise trains isolated muscles.

Note that Scott benches (see "Equipment") are by definition designed for arm curl, primarily with free weights; so in machines with such equipment, arm curl is indicated only if the machine has its own (usually weight-and-block) load system for this exercise and allows you to do without "third-party" weights.
