Dumbbell Lying One Triceps Extension

Expert Advice

Perform the exercise in a slow and controlled manner to maximize triceps engagement and prevent momentum from taking over.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Lie on a flat bench holding a dumbbell in one hand, arm extended straight up.
  2. Keep your elbow fixed and in line with your shoulder throughout the movement.
  3. Slowly lower the dumbbell towards the opposite shoulder by bending your elbow.
  4. Lower the weight until you feel a stretch in your tricep.
  5. Extend your arm back to the starting position, focusing on contracting your tricep.
  6. Complete all reps on one side before switching to the other arm.
