Scott cable curls

During Scott Curls on the cable pulley, you sit directly in front of the Scott bench, connected to the cable pulley. The exact distance depends on the strength of the cable. Adjust the distance so that you can perform the movement effortlessly. Never compromise proper execution for excessive weight. The pulley redirects at ground level. Adjust the Scott bench accordingly to comfortably rest your arms. Keep your feet firmly on the ground, maintaining a straight back. Your forearms rest on the cushion of the biceps bench, while you hold the cable pulley's bar with an underhand grip in both hands.

Movement execution

To initiate Scott Curls on the cable pulley, lift both forearms upward. The movement is exclusively in the forearms and concludes when you can't continue without moving the upper arms. The elbows remain precisely in the same position. Exhale during this movement. Subsequently, return to the starting position, inhaling along the way.
