Triceps
Barbell Incline Close Grip Bench Press
This exercise is a great way to strengthen your upper body. It focuses mainly on the triceps (the back of your arms) but also works your chest and shoulders. You do it lying on a slanted bench. You hold the bar with your hands close together, which makes your triceps work harder than usual.
