Watch this video to learn the correct form and technique for dumbbell triceps kickbacks.

How to Do a Triceps Kickback?

Start by pushing your hips back and leaning your torso forward. Your body should form a straight line from head to hips, with a neutral spine.

Hold a dumbbell in each hand. Lift your arms from the elbows until they are in line with your torso and parallel to the floor.

Only bend and straighten your elbows during the movement. Push the dumbbells back, contract your triceps, and briefly hold at the top.

Return to the starting position by slowly bending your elbows. Your upper arms should remain still and close to your body.

If you find it difficult to balance, try performing the movement one arm at a time while supporting your body with the other hand on a bench or chair.
