How to perform

Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding an EZ bar with a close, palms-up grip. Keep elbows close to your torso and knees slightly bent. Exhale and curl the bar upwards, flexing your biceps and keeping upper arms stationary. Lift until the bar reaches shoulder level. Pause, then slowly lower the bar back to the starting position while inhaling. Repeat.
