Skull Crushers
Developing the Muscles of the Triceps
1) Start by grasping an EZ curl bar or a short-straight bar with both hands.
2) Lay down on a flat bench and position the bar directly vertical to your body.
3) Make sure that your feet are firmly on the ground.
4) Begin by lowering the barbell downwards while keeping your elbows locked in a position vertical to your body and stop once you've nearly reached touching your forehead.
5) Your elbows should be pointed towards your toes to isolate your triceps best.
6) Extend the barbell back to the starting position and squeeze/flex your triceps to better target the muscles involved.
