How to Do Cable Squat Curl Press
The cable squat curl press should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the cable squat curl press.

Benefits
Cable Squat Curl Press Benefits
The biceps brachii is targeted with cable curls. This muscle is responsible for bending your elbow and rotating your forearm, as well as filling out your sleeve. Because you must stabilize during the movement, standing cable curls also engage your brachialis (which flexes the elbow), forearm muscles, and even your core.
