Resistance Band Curl

Trains biceps first, with real work landing on forearms.

Muscle contribution per set

Forearms.25

These are the weights Heatwayve's volume audit actually computes with — deliberately conservative, so compounds don't masquerade as full coverage. A 0.5 means a set counts as half a set for that muscle: meaningful help, not a replacement for direct work.

Band biceps curl; tempo maximises tension throughout ROM, especially at top.

Elbows pinned; supinate against band resistance.

How Heatwayve progresses it

Progresses by reps, not weight — you earn harder sets, longer holds, or extra reps rather than plates.

Knowing the numbers is one thing; hitting them for fifty weeks is another. Open Heatwayve — it prescribes the weight, holds you to the tempo, and runs this arithmetic on every set you log so the week actually adds up.
