The tricep kickback is a great easy-to-do, at home exercise to strengthen and tone your arms' back muscles. Here's how:
Step 1: Choose a desirable weight
Since the triceps are not very strong, you don't need to go heavy.
I just doubled a couple of 2 pound dumb bells
Step 2: Start by slightly bending your body forward, keep the back straight.
Lift your elbow, ensure that your upper arm is parallel to the floor.
Let your dumb bell hanging on the side.
Step 3: Slowly extend your arm up
Step 4: Stop extending until your arm is straight. At this position, pause for a couple of seconds.
Step 5: Lower your arm back to starting position.
** NOTE: your upper arm and elbow should not move at all during the routine.
For best results, do 4 sets of 12 - 16 reps
Have fun with this one!!

ReplyDeleteawwww baby :) When are you due?
ReplyDeleteMy triceps dangle. But when I flex, they look like rocks. Like I'm a body builder. It's kind of gross! I wish they'd stay tight when I'm not flexing!!!
