  3. Sit down on the bench with your arms fully extended. This is the starting position for the exercise.
  4. Keeping your upper arms and elbows fixed, slowly curl the weight down behind your head.
  5. Pause, and then slowly lower the weight back to the starting position.
  6. Repeat for desired reps.
