Triceps Kickbacks

Aim

To develop the upper triceps

1) Stand with feet hip width and knees slightly bent.
2) Start position: Bend at hips with back straight and knees bent . Take one hand and place on stationary object that is approximately waist height to support upper body. Hold DB in other hand with a neutral grip (palms facing each other). Bend elbow at 90° and raise upper arm so that it is higher than the level of your back (as shown)
3) Keeping elbows close to body and raised, extend forearm back.
4) Return to start position.
5) Remember to keep back and head straight in a neutral position - hyperextension or flexion may cause injury. Stabilize shoulder throughout movement by squeezing shoulder blades together slightly.
