Seated Reverse Wrist Curl (Cable)

Also known as: Seated Reverse Wrist Curl (Cable).

An overhand cable wrist extension with the forearms supported on the thighs.

How to perform this exercise

1. Sit facing a low pulley with both feet grounded. Rest both forearms lengthwise on the thighs, hands and wrists just beyond the knees. Hold a short cable bar overhand, palms down, with wrists gently lowered.
2. Extend only the wrists to lift the knuckles while elbows and forearms stay supported, then lower the wrists under control without turning it into an elbow curl.
