Dumbbell Tricep Kickback Start

Grasp the dumbbell using a closed grip. Lower your torso down until you’re parallel to the bench. Row the dumbbell up until your tricep is level with your side. Keep your elbow tight to your body. Exhale and extend at the elbow and “kick” the dumbbell back until full extension has been completed. Slowly lower the weight back down to the starting position. The only movement should take place in the elbow joint.

Be sure to keep your stomach braced through the exercise. Do not perform this exercise if you have shoulder pain or wrist pain. Contact us if you have any questions on this exercise and its variations! One of our trainers would love to help you!
