Step 1: Pick up a barbell with an overhand grip. Your hands should be close together (inside shoulder-width). Sit on the edge of a bench with your feet together and only your thighs on the bench. While holding barbell, place your forearms on your thighs, with your wrist and hands hanging over your knees.
Step 2: With the barbell hanging, flex your wrist backwards, gripping the bar and pointing your knuckles as high as possible. Your forearms should not move during the movement, and your wrists moving is all that is needed to perform the exercise correctly.
Step 4: After pausing for a split second, slowly lower the weight to the starting position. Take a breath between reps, exhaling only when reps are completed. Repeat until the desired reps are reached and then set the barbell back on the ground. Weight can be added to the bar between sets
