Description: Hold the handles of the TRX with your arms extended in front of you, then slowly bend your elbows to bring your hands toward your shoulders while keeping your body straight. Lower yourself in a controlled manner back to the starting position.

Tips: Keep your elbows close to your body and avoid swinging to effectively target the biceps. Engage your abdominal muscles to stabilize your posture.
