Single-Arm Cable Curl — biceps isolation exercise in the LIFTAG library

Single-Arm Cable Curl

Isolation · Weight × reps

Attach one handle to the low pulley and stand facing the stack with the working arm nearly straight and cable taut. Avoid rotating your body, lifting the shoulder, or swinging through the bottom. A staggered stance or light support from the free hand can improve stability; use identical distance and technique on both sides when you want a meaningful comparison.
