Dumbbell Incline Triceps Extension
Extend your arms fully above your head, keeping the dumbbells close together and your palms facing each other.
Slowly bend your elbows to lower the dumbbells behind your head, keeping your upper arms stationary and elbows close to your head.
Pause for a moment when your elbows are at a 90-degree angle and the dumbbells are near the base of your neck.
Push the dumbbells back up to the starting position, fully extending your arms but being careful not to lock your elbows. Repeat this process for your desired number of reps.
💡 Pro Tip
Avoid Overextending: A common mistake is to overextend the elbows at the top of the movement. This can put unnecessary strain on your elbow joints. Instead, aim to keep a slight bend in your elbows even at the top of the movement. Control the Movement: Avoid dropping the weights quickly and then using momentum to lift them back up. Instead, lower the weights in a slow, controlled manner, and then use your triceps to push them back up. This will ensure that your muscles are doing the work and not momentum.
