Cable Preacher Curl — biceps isolation exercise in the LIFTAG library

Cable Preacher Curl

Isolation · Weight × reps

Do not shorten the bottom just to use more load or jam the armpits over a poorly adjusted pad. Bench distance changes the cable angle, so place it where the line of pull stays clear and resistance remains smooth through your usable range.

HOW TO DO CABLE PREACHER CURL

  1. Position a preacher bench in line with the low pulley and attach a bar or handle you can reach and release safely.
  2. Sit with the backs of your upper arms fully supported, begin with the elbows comfortably extended, and curl the attachment upward without lifting from the pad.
  3. Lower slowly, stopping before the weight pulls the elbows into a forced end range.
