Sierra Nielsen for Orgain: Week 5 Workout: Tricep Toning

January 17, 17

Are you someone who spends most of your time focusing on biceps when trying to sculpt beautiful arms? You are making a big mistake. I bet you didn’t realize that your triceps make up about ⅔ of your arm. Yep! They may be fairly small in comparison to other muscles but they are vitally important in pressing motions. So when you are planning out your next workout, please don’t neglect the triceps! Here are a few of my favorite tried-and-true tricep exercises:

  • Weighted Dips: Sets: 3 / Reps: 15
  • Barbell Skullcrushers: Sets: 3 / Reps: 15 (can use dumbbells as well)
  • Dumbbell Tricep Kickback, Sets: 3 / Reps: 10-15 each arm

Happy Lifting! #YourSoulSexy
