Tricep Extension

Sit on a bench or stand. Hold one dumbbell with both hands, cupping the top end. Lift the dumbbell overhead to full arm extension.

1. Keeping your upper arms stationary, lower the dumbbell behind your head by bending your elbows.
2. Pause when your forearms are roughly parallel to the floor.
3. Extend your elbows to press the weight back to the starting position.
4. Squeeze your triceps at the top.

• Keep your elbows tucked in, not flared out.
• Maintain a stable torso and engaged core.
• Movement should only occur at the elbow joint.

• Letting the elbows flare out to the sides.
• Arching the lower back to lift the weight.
• Moving the upper arms back and forth.
