Dumbbell Curl to Overhead Press

Perform a strict bicep curl followed immediately by an overhead shoulder press with both dumbbells. One curl plus one press equals one repetition (15 total reps in Superset 1, performed across 3-4 rounds).

Key points

  • Curl both dumbbells upward with strict form without using torso swing
  • Rotate and press the dumbbells overhead into full extension
  • Lower the dumbbells under control back to hip level before initiating the next rep

Common mistakes

Arching the lumbar spine or swaying the hips to cheat the weights up on the curl and press.
