| Muscles worked:
| | Triceps
| | Instructions:
|
- Lie on your back on a bench, holding a barbell above your face with a narrow grip, hands 6-8 inches apart, with palms facing up.
- Your feet should be together on the bench and legs slightly apart.
- Keeping your upper arms straight (from shoulders to elbows) and your elbows at a "fixed-point", slowly lower the weight down until it barely reaches your forehead.
- Raise the weight to the starting position, keeping your upper arms and elbows in the same position.
| | Don'ts:
|
- Don't sway your arms through the motion. Concentrate on only using your triceps.
- Don't let your elbows wander outward from your body.
- Don't cut the movement short. Be sure to raise the barbell until your arms are fully extended and lower it until it barely touches your forehead.

| | Note:
|
- We recommend having a "spotter" to assure your safety and give you verbal feedback on your lifting technique while performing this exercise.
