This exercise is an eccentric contraction exercise for the elbow flexors. You may use a dumbbell, kettlebell, cable pulley, or strength band for this exercise. Before starting, be sure to keep the elbow directly below the shoulder, and shoulder blade retracted and depressed. Start by using your free hand to help raise the weight to the top position. Slowly lower the weight while resisting the downward acceleration. Complete the downward movement at a 5 second tempo.
