Dumbbells Triceps Extension Decline Tips

  1. Start with a comfortable weight that challenges your triceps but allows for proper form.
  2. Lie on a decline bench with your feet secured and hold the dumbbells with an overhand grip.
  3. Lower the dumbbells slowly towards your ears, keeping your elbows close to your head.
  4. Engage your triceps by fully extending your arms, squeezing them at the top of the movement.
  5. Avoid locking your elbows at the top to maintain tension on the triceps.
  6. Keep your core tight and maintain a neutral spine throughout the exercise.
  7. Exhale as you extend your arms and inhale as you lower the dumbbells back to the starting position.
