Sit or kneel on the bench with the back of your upper arm on the pad. Grip the dumbbell with your palm facing upward. Position your armpit on the top of the pad.
Raise the dumbbell slowly toward your shoulder through the full range of movement, while inhaling deeply. Make sure you contract your biceps while lifting the weight. Once at the top hold the contracted position for a brief pause as you squeeze your biceps. Keep your back flat.
Once at the peak position, exhale and slowly begin to lower the bar back to the starting position. Ensure that you lower the weight slowly and feel the resistance even while lowering the weight. Take the dumbbell all the way down to the start position and ensure your arms hang from your shoulder.
Keep the back of your upper arm in contact with the pad. Repeat the entire cycle.
