Tricep Muscle Workout For Beginners


BEGINNERS TRICEP WORKOUT WITH BODYWEIGHT
Aim to work through all 4 exercises listed, ideally 1-2 times per week, having at least two rest day between sessions.
Look at performing 1 - 2 sets of 10 - 12 reps, of each exercise, having a quick stretch of both arms prior to moving onto the next exercise. You may decide to perform all sets on the same exercise, then move to the next exercise (harder) or perform 1 set of the exercise and then move onto the next, however repeating the workout 1 more time.
Use the record sheet to record your reps - you should aim to gradually increase the amount of exercises - reps - always finish with stretching.
