🔥Superset 2🔥

👉🏻Weighted Tricep Dip (3 sets; 8 reps) 

Bend the elbows to bring your butt towards the floor. Try and keep the upper body/trunk as close to the chair as possible to isolate the triceps. Rest a weight on the thighs for an added challenge.

👉🏻Overhead Tricep Extension (12-15 reps) 

Hold one end of the dumbbell with both hands and begin with dumbbell up above your head. Drop the dumbbell down toward floor while keeping the elbows close to your head and as narrow as you can. Return to starting position by engaging your triceps.

🔥Superset 3🔥

👉🏻Eccentric Hammer Curl into Lateral Raise (3 sets; 8-10 reps) 

Neutral grip of the dumbbells with palms facing each other. Focus on 3 second count on the way down, and a powerful 1 second count on the way up. Relax through the traps to avoid neck tension. Keep elbows glued at the side or slightly in front of abdomen as much as possible.
