Sit down on a preacher bench and rest your elbow comfortably on the pad. Grab a hold of the dumbbell and hold it up "hammer" style. This is your starting position.
Lower the dumbbell down until your arm is almost fully extended and then raise it back up until your forearm is almost completely vertical. Once you repeat the entire movement for the desired or prescribed number of repetitions, switch and do the same with your other arm.
