Bridge Tricep Extensions

Make a standard bridge position, with both your feet placed wide, thighs horizontal to the floor, resting your upper back in contact with the Swiss Ball, holding a suitably weighted barbell with your arms straight.

START
start with a secure position on the ball
FINISH SIDE VIEW
avoid arching the spine
FINISH TOP VIEW
keep your elbows shoulder width apart

Smoothly lower the bar, down below your head, whilst maintaining a fixed arm position in your upper arms, avoid letting the elbows move throughout the exercise, either towards you or out to the side.

Exhale out as you bring the weight back up to your starting position, focus on preventing the elbows moving out to your sides.

You may decide to lower the bar down towards your chin – your forehead or even behind your head for a greater range of movement.

Always work within your own strength limits, never sacrificing poor technique to lift heavier weights or perform that extra rep.
