Video #8: Biceps Curls
With this series of short videos, I’m going to help you avoid a whole bunch of S. H. I. T.
We’re going to look at the Biceps Curl. As with the Triceps Press Down (see video 9 of 12), make sure that your elbows stay into your sides, so you’re not swinging up through the shoulders.
We want to keep this in the biceps. If you lift your elbows, the exertion starts to adjust up out of the biceps and into the front of the shoulder. Keep your elbows down.
Notice my elbows are down at my sides. Exhale when you pull. Inhale, resist. The wrists do not curl up or fall down. You want to keep them in alignment. Again: Keep everything aligned, and don’t lift the elbows. Keep the elbows down!

What to Expect from a Personal Trainer
Personal training is not about perfection—it’s about getting started. A good trainer meets you where you are. They’ll modify movements, scale intensity, and guide you with patience. Worried about being judged? You won’t be. Trainers work with all types of people: beginners, older adults, people with injuries, and those just starting their fitness journey. Everyone starts somewhere. Your first session is a fresh start, not a finish line.
