DUMBBELL SKULL CRUSHER

Exercise Execution:

  • Grasp a pair of dumbbells and sit on the end of a flat bench with the dumbbells resting on your thighs.
  • Lie back on the bench and extend the dumbbells above your head. The dumbbells should not be touching and you should be using a neutral grip (palms facing each other).
  • Bending at the elbows only, keeping your elbows fixed and pointing at your hips, slowly lower the dumbbells down beside your head until they are about level with your ears.
  • Pause and squeeze the triceps. Then raise the dumbbells back to the starting position.
