Dumbbell Incline Tricep Kickback

Dumbbell Incline Triceps Kickback

• An adjustable bench

1. Set Up the Bench:

• Adjust the bench to a 30-45 degree incline. Make sure it is stable and secure.

2. Positioning Your Body:

   • Sit on the bench with your chest resting against it.

   • Your feet should be firmly planted on the ground.

   • Hold one dumbbell in each hand, with your palms facing each other.

   • Let your arms hang down towards the floor.

3. Starting Position:

   • Bend at your elbows to bring the dumbbells up so they are aligned with your lower ribs.

   • Keep your elbows close to your body and bent at about a 90-degree angle.

4. The Movement:

   • Exhale as you extend both arms straight back, focusing on squeezing your triceps at the top of the movement.

   • Keep your upper arms stationary throughout the exercise; only your forearms should move.

5. Return to Start:

   • Inhale as you slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position, maintaining control.

6. Repetitions:

   • Aim for 10-15 repetitions for 2-3 sets, adjusting the weight as necessary.

Tips:

• Focus on keeping your core engaged to maintain stability.

• Avoid using momentum; the movement should be slow and controlled.

• If you experience any discomfort in your shoulders, reduce the weight or adjust your form.
