Flexor Incline Dumbbell Curls

Flexor Incline Dumbbell Curls are performed seated against an incline bench with the arms hanging behind or beside the torso. The biceps curl both dumbbells while the bench limits body movement. The source also recommends an offset grip and an exaggerated wrist position, but neither is required for a standard incline curl.

Training context

Muscles Worked by Flexor Incline Dumbbell Curls

The biceps bend the elbows from a lengthened upper-arm position. The forearms and hands support the dumbbells even though they are not listed as secondary muscles.

Holding a dumbbell away from its center changes how it balances in the hand. Use a centered grip and neutral wrist unless an offset grip has a clear purpose and remains comfortable.

Technique overview

Keep the wrists comfortably aligned

Set the bench near 45 degrees and let the arms hang naturally. Begin with the palms forward and curl without driving the elbows ahead of the torso. Keep the wrists firm rather than forcing them backward. Lower slowly until the arms return to a comfortable extension.

Treat this as an overview and use a range, pace, and setup you can control.
