Triceps
Ez-bar Close-grip Bench Press
This is an exercise for your upper body that uses several muscles at once. It mostly works the back of your arms (triceps), but it also helps your chest and shoulders. You do this while lying on a bench, holding a wavy bar (EZ bar) with your hands close together to make your arm muscles work harder.
