Band Tricep Extension

Primary Muscle Group: Backs of upper arms

Muscle Groups Worked in This Exercise: Triceps brachii; medial, lateral and long heads, as well as a little mentioned muscle, the Anconeus

Preparation: Your resistance band should be attached to a sturdy object of a suitable height so that it is as far as possible above your head height. You should be standing with feet hip-width apart and your abs should be nice and tight. Grasp the handles with an overhand grip and lock your elbows by your sides. Bend your arms until your hands are at shoulder height.

Breathing: Breathe out as you straighten your arms; breathe in when you return to start position. 

Execution: Now, slowly extend your arms and push the handles down until they are touching your thighs. Slowly, bend your arms back to the start position.

Comments: Your upper arms and elbows should be fixed right at your sides; be conscious of them trying to swing out as you lift up. Also, your shoulders and back should remain still throughout the range of motion for the greatest benefit.

Ball Band French Curl

Primary Muscle Group: Back of upper arms

Muscle Groups Worked in This Exercise: Triceps brachii (lateral and long heads) and that seldom heard of muscle, Anconeus

Preparation: Sit on the ball with your feet flat on the floor. Place the band under both feet and grasp an end in each hand.

Breathing: Inhale as you bend your elbow, and exhale as you return to start position.

Execution: Extend your arms overhead with palms facing each other. Remember to keep those abs engaged to reap the full benefits. Bend your elbows and lower your hands behind your head and inhale. Exhale when you raise your hands back to starting position.

Comments: The overhead work in this exercise targets the entire length of your tricep muscles. This also forces your core muscles to engage giving you the added benefit of tight and toned abs.
