## Equipment

- Cable Station

## Technique

1. Attach an EZ-bar to a low pulley and take the bar with an underhand grip on the angled sections.
2. Stand tall a step back from the stack, elbows at your sides.
3. Curl the bar toward your shoulders without moving the upper arms.
4. Lower the bar slowly until your arms are straight and the stack stays under tension.

### Cues

- The cable keeps tension at the bottom: do not rest there.
- Keep the shoulders back and down.

### Common mistakes

- Leaning back to cheat the weight up.
- Letting the elbows float forward.
- Dropping the bar fast on the way down.
