Seated Bent Over Tricep Dumbbell Kickback Overview
The seated bent over dumbbell kickback is a variation of the standing dumbbell kickback.
Seated bent over dumbbell kickbacks are an exercise used to isolate the muscles of the triceps.
By performing kickbacks seated, you eliminate the core stability needed to perform them standing and eliminate momentum which can be generated while standing to move the weight.
