Use the following body building strategies to beef up your triceps.
Bench Tricep Dippers
Position a bench behind you, sideways. Lean against the bench
on your back. Using your hands, grab a hold onto the edge of the
bench at a shoulder’s width apart. Wedge your heels on a second
bench. Then press yourself upwards by extending your arms. Cease
the maneuver once your elbows lock. For full-range motion, lower
yourself as low as possible. Resistance can be increased by requesting
a training partner to place weights in your lap. Remember to avoid
bending your knees while performing the movement. For the best
form, do not allow the body to slump forward.
One-Armed Tricep Extension
While holding a dumbbell in one hand, sit on a chair or bench.
Stretch arms out so the weight is over your head. The elbow should
remain stationary as you keep your upper arm in close proximity
of your head. Gradually, let the dumbbell down in an arc direction
behind the head. The objective is to stretch the tricep as far
as you are able. Next, press the dumbbell to its original position.
Dipping Triceps
Using parallel dip bars, hold and support yourself at arms' length.
Keep your head erect as you cross your legs in an upward position
behind you. Gingerly, lower yourself until your arms are bent
at a 90-degree angle. To apply stress on the triceps, keep your
body erect. When the upper body leans forward, stress will move
toward the pectorals. At the end of each movement, perch the body
upward until the elbows are almost locked. Maintain the position
for two seconds while your breath. If 15 reps are easy, then consider
adding resistance by wrapping a weight belt around the waist. |
