The cable seated overhead curl targets the biceps, providing a unique angle to engage the muscles effectively. This variation involves a seated position with cables, allowing for controlled movement and constant tension throughout the curl, which helps in isolating the biceps.

How to do it

  1. Sit on a bench between two cable machines, adjusting the cables to shoulder height.
  2. Grip the handles with palms facing up, arms extended overhead.
  3. Curl the handles down towards your head by bending the elbows.
  4. Squeeze the biceps at the bottom, then slowly return to the starting position.
  5. Ensure a controlled motion, keeping the elbows stationary.
