  1. 1Feel your biceps working as you curl your hands up with palms facing in
  2. 2Keep your elbows close to your ribs throughout the curl
  3. 3Stay light on your feet and time the curl with each step out

Common mistakes

  • Avoid using a swing or body english to lift your hands
  • Do not stomp your feet; keep the steps light and controlled
