How to do the Cable Double Bicep Curl

4 steps, in the order you do them.

Stand in the center between two high pulleys and take a handle in each hand, arms out to the sides at shoulder height.
Keeping your arms still, bend your elbows and bring your hands toward your head.
Squeeze your biceps for a second.
Extend in a controlled way without lowering your elbows.

What goes wrong most often when you do the Cable Double Bicep Curl, and how to fix it.

Your elbows drop as you curl and the exercise becomes a pull.
Keep your arms straight out to the sides at shoulder height. Only your forearms move toward your head.
You don't stand in the center and one arm gets more tension than the other.
Stand right in the middle of the two pulleys, with the cables the same distance from each hand.
Your torso leans toward one pulley as you tire.
Keep your feet in line and your abs braced so your body stays still between the two cables.
