Lying Triceps Kickback

Set the bench to an 60deg angle. Stand still and rest your upper body on the inclined bench, ensuring a nearly straight line of your entire body. Squeeze your shoulder blades together, so that your elbows are located behind your torso with your upper arms nearly parallel to the floor. Lift the dumbbells until your arms form a straight line. Slowly lower the dumbbells back to the initial position. Initial position corresponds to an rectangular position of upper and lower arms.
