High and Low-Platform Wrist Curl

To take wrist curls a step further, try doing them seated on an adjustable platform, or just use two different surfaces: one high, one low.

Adjusting the height of the platform can influence the overload:

  • A high-platform position where the hips are higher than the knees will overload the contracted position.
  • A low-platform position where the hips are lower than the knees will overload the stretched position.

Try a couple of sets in each position and you'll feel the difference.
