How to do the Cable Preacher Curl

  1. 1

    Place a preacher bench about 2 feet in front of a pulley machine.

  2. 2

    Attach a straight bar to the low pulley.

  3. 3

    Sit at the preacher bench with your elbow and upper arms firmly on top of the bench pad and have someone hand you the bar from the low pulley.

  4. 4

    Grab the bar and fully extend your arms on top of the preacher bench pad. This will be your starting position.
