30-90 seconds • Keep rest periods shorter for hypertrophy focus.
Kneel or sit in front of a flat bench. Rest your forearms flat on the bench, allowing the hands to hang over the edge while holding dumbbells with a neutral grip (palms facing each other).
Inhale as you lower the weight (eccentric phase) and exhale as you curl the weight up (concentric phase).

Lower the dumbbells until the wrists are fully flexed downward, achieving a deep stretch in the forearms.
Not recommended; use a weight that allows complete control.
