Pronated Spider Curls

You often see people doing traditional curling movements and reverse grip movements, but for this one, we’ll make a tweak.

In this exercise, we’ll use an almost completely pronated grip and chest support from the bench press for maximum arm tension.

Trust us, this one will blast your upper arms on fire if you do it correctly.
