This is a strength exercise that works your triceps (the back of your arms), as well as your chest and shoulders. You perform it by holding two dumbbells close together and pushing them up to focus on your tricep muscles.

How to Perform
- 1Sit on a flat bench with a dumbbell in each hand, resting them on your legs.
- 2Use your legs to help lift the dumbbells up one at a time. Hold them in front of you, as wide as your shoulders.
- 3Turn your wrists so that your palms face away from your body. This is where you start.
- 4Breathe in and slowly lower the weights down to your sides until they are even with your chest.
- 5Breathe out and use your triceps to push the weights back up to the start. Focus on using only your triceps, not your forearms or biceps.
- 6Pause for one second at the top, then repeat the movement for the required number of times.
