Dumbbell Zottman Preacher Curl

Description
This exercise involves using dumbbells to perform a preacher curl, but with a twist. As you curl the weight up, you rotate your wrists so that your palms face down at the top of the movement, then rotate them back to palms-up as you lower the weight. This targets both the biceps and the forearms.
