Checkpoints

• -The band stays taut even at the bottom.
• -Elbows stay fixed at the sides throughout.
• -Each arm reaches full extension between reps.
• -The torso stays still while arms alternate.

Common mistakes

• -Letting the band go slack at the bottom.
• -Rushing the tempo and cutting range short.
• -Swinging the shoulders to help the curl.
• -Standing unevenly so one side gets less tension.
