NO EQUIPMENT ISOMETRIC ARM CURL!

-

 Isometric exercises are exercises that involve the contraction of a muscle without actually moving the joint. In the case of the arm curl, this would mean holding a weight or other resistance in a fixed position without lifting or lowering it.

To perform an isometric arm curl without any weight, you can simply use your own body as resistance. Here's how:

  1. Stand or sit with your back straight and your arms at your sides.
  2. Bend your elbows to 90 degrees so that your forearms are parallel to the ground.
  3. Hold this position for as long as you can, contracting your biceps and other arm muscles.
  4. Release and repeat for several sets.

You can also vary this exercise by changing the angle of your arms or the position of your hands. For example, you could hold your arms out in front of you at shoulder height, or hold your hands in a prayer position in front of your chest.

Remember to breathe normally throughout the exercise and to keep your shoulders relaxed.
