21 Bicep Curls

Grab a dumbbell in each hand, holding the weights at arm’s length down at your sides.  Curl the weights upward but pause halfway, when your forearms are about parallel to the floor, then lower back down to the starting position.  Perform 7 repetitions of this movement. Without resting, curl the weights all the way up but stop halfway down and do 7 repetitions of this partial movement. Finish off the set by doing 7 full-range Dumbbell Curls.
