Tricep Kickbacks

Tricep Kickback Instructions

• Position a flat bench at 45-degrees.
• Lie chest down on the bench with a dumbbell in each hand.
• Let your forearms hang perpendicular to the floor.
• Hands are in a neutral position.
• Initiate the mind-muscle connection of creating and maintaining tension in the tricep throughout the exercise.
• Extend your forearms back and contract your tricep at the top of the exercise. 
• There is not a massive range-of-motion with this exercise.
• Maintain the neutral hand position from start to finish.
• Your forearms go past your torso. This fully activates the long-head of the tricep.
• Slowly let the weight come back to the starting position.

*Tips*

• Ignore the notion to curl the weight towards your chest.
