The 1 arm tricep extension is an effective exercise for developing the tricep muscles, and is performed by gripping a dumbbell with one hand, keeping the elbow stationary and extending the elbow to raise the weight. Performing the exercise whilst seated encourages good technique. This is a great isolation exercise for the triceps making each arm work independently. Below you'll find a video guide and step by step instructions that describe the correct technique for the seated dumbbell 1 arm tricep extension exercise.
