Doing this exercise will help you to develop strong, shapely arms. Your triceps are helpful for any pushing movement.
When you work your triceps, you should also work your biceps, the opposing muscles.
Do not allow your arms to move forward and backward while performing this exercise.
Your elbows should stay in one place and work as a lever to lower and raise the dumbbells.
It is better to use less weight and do this exercise slowly. This technique will help to prevent injury.
Triceps extension:
Lay on a flat bench or floor
Knees bent and feet flat
Hold a dumbbell in each hand
Straighten arms toward the ceiling then bring them back so your arms are next to your
face
Pull in on your abdominal muscles and push your lower back toward the bench or
floor
While exhaling, slowly bend your elbows lowering the weight toward the bench or
floor behind you
Do not touch the bench or floor
Inhale and lift your weights back to your start position by straightening your elbows
You should be able to feel the triceps muscles working after a few reps
