Exercise Advice: Position yourself on a flat bench and lay back completely flat. Have someone carefully hand you a barbell or EZ bar and position it above your head with your palm facing in. Keep your arms straightened but make sure to always keep a little bend in your arm to keep tension on the tricep muscle. Slowly lower the barbell to a few inches above your chest while keeping your elbows in toward your side. Extend your arms back up the starting position while keeping your elbows in.
