Cable Incline Biceps Curl: Does your upper body lift off the bench?
Keep your shoulders and back against the bench as you curl the bar up and lower it, without lifting your upper body off the bench.
How to fix it
- Lie back against the bench and grasp the bar.
- Keep your shoulders and back against the bench.
- Bend your elbows to raise the bar, then lower it.
The app sets the reps for your next set
For example, if you are a beginner and used 15kg to complete 8 reps in each set as planned in your last workout, the app keeps the weight the same and increases your reps to 9. When you log your sets, GYMKC reads your last set and recalculates the weight and reps for your next set.

Sources describing curls differ slightly. Some say to raise the bar toward your shoulders, while others say toward your chin. Either way, keep your shoulders and back against the bench.
