In During training, we need to make some changes in a timely manner, add some tricks to our training content, enhance the fun of training, and give our muscles different experiences and stimulation!
Today we would like to introduce to you: supine alternating arm extensions
Supine arm extensions are one of the most popular triceps training exercises in the gym. , he can help us strengthen our arms very well!
Action demonstration:
Same as the traditional drop-down mode, Let’s change the way: alternate the left and right hands to perform supine arm extensions
The benefits of doing this!
1. Compared with ordinary two-hand movements, single-arm movement provides you with a wider range of movement and micro-mobilization of more motor units. At the same time, it can also help you correct the imbalance of left and right muscle strength!
2. Increase the time the muscles are under tension to help the muscles get better stimulation!
Alternating dips and extensions have the advantages of unilateral training! At the same time, because when one hand is moving, the other hand is in a static state of bearing weight, which can help you increase the time your muscles are under tension, and will also challenge your shoulder stability!
How?
The starting position is the same as the traditional supine arm extension. Lie on your back on a stool, grab a kettlebell or dumbbell with both hands, straighten your arms, and point down perpendicular to the ground!
Fix your shoulders, bend your elbow with one arm to lower the pot ling, complete one arm flexion and extension, and then alternate hands!
Note:
Keep your shoulders stable during the movement!
Keep breathing evenly!
The action rhythm is slower, especially when falling down the pot ling!
