Cross Body Hammer Curls

BeginnerBodyweight

Cross body hammer curls isolate the biceps while the neutral grip also brings the brachialis and forearms into play. Instead of curling straight up, you drive the dumbbell diagonally across your torso, which changes the angle of pull and adds variety to your arm training.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand with your feet about shoulder-width apart and a dumbbell in each hand.

  2. 2

    Hold the dumbbells in front of you with your palms facing your body and elbows near your sides.

  3. 3

    Curl one dumbbell in an arc across your body toward the opposite shoulder.

  4. 4

    Keep your elbow locked in place as you lift and pause briefly at the top.

  5. 5

    Lower the dumbbell back down under control, then repeat with the other arm.
