Start Position: Using a flat bench, hold yourself up with your arms and put your feet on the floor so that your upper legs are parallel to the floor. Tense abs.
MidPoint: Lower yourself by bending your elbows. Keep an upright position so that the stress is mainly on your triceps. Don't go too low, as this puts your shoulders in a vulnerable position. Your upper arms should be about parallel to the ground. Finish Position: Using just triceps strength, bring yourself back up until your arms are almost straight. 15-20 reps make a set. To make the exercise more difficult, put your legs up on another bench/chair or place a weight plate on your lap. |
