Kettlebell Lying Triceps Extension Skull Crusher
The lying extension with one kettlebell held by the horns in both hands, lowered behind the head and pressed back over the chest.
How to do it
Setup
Lying on a flat bench, one kettlebell held by the horns above the chest, arms straight.
Steps
- Bend the elbows to lower the bell behind the head.
- Keep the upper arms pointing up and still.
- Extend the arms to bring the bell back over the chest.
Common mistakes
Letting the bell swing on the handle: slow and even reps. Elbows splaying wide: keep them narrow. Arching off the bench to press: back and head stay down.
Breathing
Inhale lowering, exhale extending.
