Bodyweight Tricep Kickback Pulse

Accurate?

Target your triceps with this bodyweight exercise! Feel the burn with small, controlled pulses. No equipment needed!

Instructions

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and your torso leaning forward at about a 45-degree angle.

2. Extend your arms straight behind you with your palms facing inwards. This will be your starting position.

3. Without moving your upper arms, perform a small pulsing motion by bending and extending your elbows a few inches in a controlled manner.

4. The movement should be focused on squeezing the triceps muscle at the peak of each pulse.

5. Keep your core engaged and back straight throughout the movement to maintain good posture and balance.

6. Continue the pulsing motion without letting your arms drop for a set number of repetitions or time duration before relaxing.

7. Repeat for the desired number of sets, ensuring that you keep consistent form for each repetition.

Remember to breathe consistently throughout the exercise and to perform the movements with control, focusing on the contraction of the triceps muscles. Avoid locking your elbows at any point to keep tension on the muscles and reduce the risk of injury.
