How to Perform Unilateral Curl
The cable unilateral curl is an isolation exercise that targets the biceps one arm at a time, helping to address strength imbalances and improve muscle control. Performed using a single handle attached to a low cable pulley, the movement involves curling the handle upward by flexing the elbow while keeping the upper arm stable and close to the body. The continuous tension provided by the cable promotes smooth, controlled reps and consistent biceps activation throughout the full range of motion.
