Squat Curl
Muscles worked: Biceps Brachialis, Biceps Brachii, Brachialis, Gluteals, Quadriceps, Hamstrings, Erector Spinae, Abs
Start: Start with your feet hip-width apart, toes facing forward. Hold your hands with weights near the outside of your thighs, palms facing each other. Squat low by pushing your hips back and leaning slightly forward with a straight back. Keep your knees from pushing forward by aligning them over your ankles. Shift your body weight to your heels.
Common Error: Slumping the shoulders and bending at the lower back
Fit Fix: Hold your chest high and keep your torso in a diagonal—rather than horizontal—line from your hips to your shoulders to your head.
