Ok, lets face it, I'm not going to get the exercise challenges up on Mondays. I teach a class on Mondays, and this month I have serious deadlines that keep me working on this project all day. So, expect the exercise challenges T,W, and F. That will save my guilty conscience. :)
With this exercise you will need the mommymuslce® bar that I have listed on the right side of the page. If you don't have the bar, you can always improvise with a resistance. Still, using the same relaxed underhand grip, use a couple cans of soup, or weights, if you have those. For best results, use the mommymuscle® bar if you have it (or go out and buy it, it is so much more versitle than weights, and easier to travel with you. Now, onto the challenge!
Bicep Curls with mommymuscle® bar
Stand on tube with feet shoulder width apart, knees slightly bent. Hold onto bar with relaxed underhand grip, Elbows are tucked in to the side and slowly curl up. Keep wrists straight, Chest up and out, be careful not to allow the upper body to rock.
Added challenge, add a squat as you curl down.
For an added challenge, lift to a two count: lift halfway up, pause, and continue to top. Repeat as you lower bar back down.
Now get up off the couch, or out of the computer chair, and do 2 sets of 12-15 reps each.
Your body will thank you for it!
