The Bodyweight Kneeling Triceps Extension exercise is a bodyweight exercise that targets the triceps muscles. It can be performed anywhere without the need for equipment.
How to perform
To perform the Bodyweight Kneeling Triceps Extension exercise, follow these steps:1. Begin by kneeling on the floor with your knees hip-width apart and your back straight.
2. Extend your arms overhead with your palms facing in towards each other and your elbows close to your ears.
3. Keeping your elbows stationary, slowly bend your elbows to lower your forearms behind your head.
4. Once your forearms are parallel to the floor, pause for a moment.
5. Slowly straighten your arms to return to the starting position.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
It is important to maintain proper form throughout the exercise, keeping your core engaged and your back straight. Avoid swinging your arms or using momentum to lift the weight, as this can place unnecessary strain on the joints. Start with a lighter weight or modify the exercise as needed to ensure proper technique and prevent injury.
