Overview

The dumbbell lying alternate extension is an exercise targeting the triceps, particularly the long head of the triceps brachii. It is a simple exercise that can be performed with a pair of dumbbells. To perform the exercise, lie on a bench with your feet flat on the floor and your knees bent. Hold a dumbbell in each hand with your arms extended straight up overhead. Slowly lower one dumbbell behind your head, keeping your elbow close to your side. Then, extend your arm back up to the starting position. Repeat with the other arm. Perform 3 sets of 8-12 repetitions on each arm.
