Grab a barbell with an underhand (palms up) grip as wide as you comfortably can and extend your arms fully against your thighs. 3.) Keeping your elbows straight, raise the bar towards your chest till your forearms touch your chest, squeezing your bicep muscle. 4.) Pause for moment and then return to the starting position. 5.) Repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
