To perform the exercise, push the dumbbells in a straight line overhead until your arms are fully extended. Slowly lower the weights back to the starting position. Perform 3 sets of 10 reps with a minute of rest in between. Reverse Flyes Holding a dumbbell in each hand, lean forward about 45 degrees from your hips and bend your knees slightly. With your elbows bent, hold the dumbbells together with the heads facing forward. Keeping a slight bend in your elbows, raise your arms out to the sides until they are parallel to the floor. Perform 3 sets of 10 reps with a minute of rest in between. Pectorals Dumbbell Flyes Grab a dumbbell in each hand and stand with your arms at your sides, palms facing your body.

Using only your wrists, curl the dumbbells towards you. Perform 3 sets of 10 reps with a minute of rest in between. Farmer’s Carry Grab a set of dumbbells heavier than what you can curl with your biceps and let your arms hang at your sides. Stand tall and start walking, keeping your chest pushed out.

Tricep Dips Place your hands on the edge of the bench with your knuckles pointed at your body. Walk your feet out until your legs are straight. Straighten your arms.

Lying Triceps Presses Lie on your back on a bench with your knees bent, feet on the floor. Grab a barbell with an overhand grip, hands shoulder width apart a few inches above your chest.

You should feel tension in your triceps. Raise the barbell back to the starting position, keeping your elbows tucked in during the entire movement. Perform 3 sets of 10 reps with a minute of rest in between.
