Beginning
Beginning Db Curl to Oblique Foot Reach
The dumbbell biceps curl exercise focuses on your biceps, which are the muscles that help you hold heavy objects and seem beefy in sleeveless shirts. If you have problems with your lower back or elbows, proceed with caution.
Movement

1. Choose a relatively light dumbbell. Stand with your feet about shoulder-width apart, with your toes pointing at a slight angle out. Lift the spine and make sure that your head is in line with your shoulders, hips, and knees. Your arms should be relaxed and dangling next to your sides, fully extended with your palms facing the thighs.
2. Keeping your core activated throughout, reach down to the opposite toe, and then straighten up. Make sure that your knees are slightly bent during the movement and that you don't round or arch your back as you reach down or rise up. Your trailing foot is permitted to pivot.
3. Once in an upright position, pull your shoulders back and down and begin bending your elbows to curl the dumbbell up to shoulder height. Simultaneously, you should be rotating your forearm so that your palm faces your shoulder at the height of the movement. Make sure that your upper arm remains tight and next to the torso throughout the exercise. Lower the dumbbell by straightening the elbow.
4. Reach down to the toes on the other side, and repeat in an alternating pattern until all the required repetitions are completed.
