How to do Kettlebell Overhead Triceps Extension

Setup

Stand or sit tall holding one kettlebell by the horns with both hands extended overhead, elbows pointing forward and close to your ears.

How to do it

  1. Lower the kettlebell behind your head by bending only at the elbows
  2. Keep your upper arms vertical and elbows from flaring out
  3. Extend your elbows to press the kettlebell back overhead, squeezing the triceps at the top
  4. Keep your ribs down and core braced throughout

Watch out for

  • Flaring the elbows wide, which reduces triceps tension and stresses the shoulders
  • Arching the lower back and flaring the ribs as the kettlebell lowers
