The Dumbbell Incline Two-Arm Extension is a strength exercise targeting the triceps, particularly effective for building arm muscle mass and improving upper body strength. Performing this on an incline bench helps engage the triceps more intensely by changing the angle of the movement.

How to do it

  1. Sit on an incline bench with your back supported and feet flat on the ground.
  2. Hold a dumbbell with both hands, extending your arms straight above your head.
  3. Slowly lower the dumbbell behind your head by bending your elbows, keeping your upper arms stationary.
  4. Pause briefly, then extend your elbows to lift the dumbbell back to the starting position.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining control throughout the exercise.
