Sit on the bicep machine and adjust the seat. The seat will be in the correct position when your shoulders are allowed to remain relaxed while your hands are holding the hand grips. If you're in the right position, you will feel natural, if you're slouched or your arms feel stretched then you will need to adjust your seat.
Elbows should be lined up evenly with the axis of this machine.
