Tricep Extension

The triceps extensions

The triceps extensions are another way to build strong muscles to help control the opposing linemen.  When doing triceps extensions you will be working all 3 heads of triceps the long, medial, and lateral. You must grip the dumbbell tight and raise it above your head. Then you put your arm in a 90 degree angle and extend your elbow using the hinge joint. When extending your arms you make your arm distal from body and players cannot grab your jersey. Normally you would like to do this for 3-5 sets of 6-12 reps.
