How to perform it
- Start out by placing a flat bench in front of a low pulley cable that has a straight bar attachment.
- Use your arms to grab the cable bar with a narrow to shoulder width supinated grip (palms up) and bring them up so that your forearms are resting against the top of your thighs. Your wrists should be hanging just beyond your knees.
- Start out by curling your wrist upwards and exhaling. Keep the contraction for a second.
- Slowly lower your wrists back down to the starting position while inhaling.
- Your forearms should be stationary as your wrist is the only movement needed to perform this exercise.
- Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

Make it count toward your goal
Random sets rarely move the needle. In NYUS, the Cable Wrist Curl slots into a plan built for your goal — sets and reps set in the plan, logged in two taps, and folded into a weekly check-in that adjusts your calories, macros and step goal.
