Lying Dumbbell Extension Instructions:
Grab a pair of dumbbells and lay down on a flat bench with your head at the end (see picture). Extend your arms straight up with thumbs facing backwards. Keeping your arms straight move them dumbbells about 12 inches (30cm) back. This is the start position. Keeping your elbows pointing towards your feet, and bending only at the elbows, lower the dumbbells down as far as possible. Raise to starting position. Repeat.
Tips and Safety Advice:
Like all tricep exercises you need to keep elbows tucked in at all times. If you don't do this, your shoulders will take over and you will get little effect on your triceps.
