Dumbbell Lying Extension (across face)

Expert Advice

Focus on isolating the triceps by keeping your elbows stationary and only moving your forearms during the exercise.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Lie on a flat bench with a dumbbell in each hand, arms extended straight up over your chest.
  2. Keeping your upper arms still, bend your elbows to lower the dumbbells in a smooth arc toward your shoulders.
  3. Pause when the dumbbells are near your ears, then extend your arms back to the starting position.
  4. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
