Dumbbell Curl
What is this machine?
Käsipainokäynnistys (Dumbbell Curl) on vapailla painoilla tehtävä liike, joka kuormittaa ensisijaisesti Hauikset.
The exercise suits a beginner: the range of motion is guided and you can start light.
An exercise with free weights demands more stabiliser muscles and balance than the equivalent machine exercise.

Open in the app⚠️ Most common mistake: Swinging the torso back to throw the dumbbells up, which removes the biceps from the lift. Letting the elbows drift forward on the way up, turning the curl into a partial front raise. Cutting the range short at the bottom by never fully straightening the arms between reps. Dropping the dumbbells fast on the way down and skipping the slow lowering phase where most growth lives.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Hauikset.
