Want to show off toned arms without an ounce of arm jiggle? Pair these six triceps exercises with a cardio routine and tone up your arms in no time!
Triceps Push-Ups
This push-up variation targets the backs of the arms like no other.
- Begin in plank position with the arms and body straight, shoulders over the wrists. Keep the core engaged.
- Bend the elbows behind you and lower your chest to the floor. Keep your upper arms tight to your body so your elbows are against your ribs on both sides.
- Straighten the arms, coming back to plank position.
- This counts as one rep. Do as many reps as you can with correct form.
Triceps Push
Use two- or three-pound weights for this move, which focuses on tiny controlled movements in your triceps.
- Hold your weights and kneel on your knees with toes touching the ground. Hinge forward from your hips and bend your elbows at 90 degrees.
- Unbend your elbows and extend both of your arms straight back, palms facing each other. Squeeze your triceps, and then return back to starting position.
- Repeat 10 times. Do three sets of 10.
