rzen 7c241ec44c Ship the 47-exercise library in-app: export, fixtures, tests, docs
render.py --export bundles the 25 new motion rigs and info pages;
figure-fixtures.json regenerated for all 47 (the Swift solver reproduces
every new motion, including negative-y pins and the new prop uses). The
fixture count assertion moves to 47, and the no-bundled-motion test now
uses Treadmill - a permanent COVERAGE.md exclusion - since Bench Press
exists. 48 tests green; watch target builds. Coverage handoff complete -
TODO-coverage.md retired.

# Dumbbell Curl
The free-weight biceps curl — elbows pinned to the sides, curl both
dumbbells from a full hang to the shoulders.
- **Category:** Main circuit
- **Type:** Free-weight elbow flexion (dumbbells)
- **Targets:** Biceps, forearms
- **Prescription:** 3 × 1012
## Setup
Stand tall with a dumbbell in each hand at your sides, palms forward (or
turning as you curl), elbows lightly touching the ribs.
## Execution
1. Curl both weights up in an arc until the forearms reach the biceps.
2. Keep the elbows fixed in place at your sides.
3. Lower all the way to straight arms — the stretch counts.
## Cues
- Elbows are hinges, not swings — they never travel forward or back.
- Wrists stay neutral; no flicking at the top.
- Stand tall; the trunk does not rock.
## Common Mistakes
- Swinging the hips to start the rep.
- Half reps that skip the bottom stretch.
- Elbows drifting forward, turning it into a front raise.
## Progression
Add weight only while the torso stays statue-still; alternate arms or
curl seated to remove all momentum.
