Upper Body Push and Pull:

Tip: SPIDER CURLS FOR ELBOW HEALTH

One long-standing knowledge point in strength and conditioning research is the following: “Joints are generally healthier when they move through full range of motion more frequently.” The elbow joint bends and straightens but can rotate inward and outward (called pronation and supination). The Spider Curl often finds its way into PERSIST to move and strengthen the elbow joint through its true full range of motion.
