No doubt there are certain parts of the country left wondering if spring will ever arrive, but inevitably the warmer weather is on its way. So are you ready to fling off those bulky winter clothes this spring and bare those arms?
Here is one of my favorite new exercises to challenge your balance, core strength & to tone those arms...and if you are one of my clients you know how much I like to work those triceps!
Warrior Three Tricep Press
Stand with feet shoulder width apart, holding dumbbells (women try 4, 6 or 8lbs; men shoot for 8, 10 or 12lbs to start). Bend at the waist and lift one leg behind you parallel to the floor, arms entended down. Bend arms, bringing elbows just higher than your back, then extend arms back for a tricep press, keeping elbows higher than your back. Repeat 10 times, keeping leg extended the whole time. If you start to lose your balance, tap toe on the floor, regroup, then finish your presses. Switch legs and repeat on the other side 10 reps. Keep your belly button in the whole time!
